A few words about the STAPH SYMPOSIA:

Impact Research Communications is pleased to announce the First Virtual Symposium on Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcal Infections- STAPH SYMPOSIA which will take place Online on July 9-10, 2025.

The multidisciplinary most recent research discoveries on Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcal infections will be covered. Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus bacteria are responsible for a broad range of clinical illnesses. This bacterium frequently causes infections in both hospital-acquired and community-acquired situations. The rise of multi-drug resistant bacteria, like MRSA (Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus), makes treatment difficult. On healthy skin, S. aureus often does not cause illness; but, if it is let to penetrate the bloodstream or internal tissues, it can cause a number of potentially dangerous infections.

In order to improve our knowledge and management of staphylococcal infections, we will combine knowledge from a variety of fields, such as microbiology, and the field of genomics, infection the biological sciences, immunological research, clinical diseases of infection, and the development of antibiotics and antimicrobial substances.

The following features of this virtual conference will make it the perfect, economical format:
