Conferences

25–28 September 2012, Paris, France
International Symposium Alternatives to Antibiotics (ATA)

The symposium will focus on the latest scientific breakthroughs and technologies that provide new options and alternative strategies for preventing and treating diseases of animals. Some of these new technologies have direct applications as medical interventions for human health, but the focus of the symposium is animal production, animal health, and food safety. The following five areas will be explored in detail through scientific presentations and expert panel discussions:

  1. Alternatives to antibiotics: lessons from nature
  2. Altering innate defense mechanisms to enhance disease resistance
  3. The gut microbiome and immune development, health and diseases
  4. Alternatives to antibiotics for use as growth promotants
  5. Regulatory pathways to enable the licensure of alternatives to antibiotics
