Overview: 2018 ISV Congress: Advances in the 100 Years Since the World's Deadliest Pandemic


Moved to Ghent

Invitation from Congress co-Chairs

We are excited to announce that the venue for the 2019 International Society for Vaccines (ISV) Annual Congress has moved to Europe and will be held in the beautiful medieval city of Ghent, in Flanders-Belgium, October 27-29 at the International Convention Centre (ICC).

Ghent is centrally located in Europe, at the crossroads of transport networks between Amsterdam, Paris, London and the Ruhr area of Germany. The city is also easily accessible by air via Brussels airport and a direct train connection.

Ghent and its surroundings are home to a vibrant vaccine and bioscience community of Universities, Biotechnology Institutes, Pharmaceutical companies and biotech SME’s. The city has an impressive history going back 15 centuries and is home to famous museums and historical buildings straddling idyllic canals, all within walking distance of hotels and restaurants.   Read More
