Pre-Meeting Courses
Clinical Pre-Meeting Course – Saturday, December 6, and Sunday,
December 7
Malaria Eradication: Calibrating Aspirations, Technology and Commitment
In the past five years, there has been enormous change in the financing and implementation of malaria prevention and treatment to meet agreed upon uptake goals, and this process had already been accelerated under the concept of “Scaling up for Impact” that is based on the potential for higher impact when the control program is scaled up rapidly rather than incrementally. A number of countries, supported by major financing agencies have made commitments to drive malaria control interventions up to optimize impact. This course is
designed to provide the participant an exposure to experts in the range of relevant topics to review the historical and contemporary issues that frame global malaria control strategies and programming. The course will focus on providing participants a broad interactive opportunity to learn about the rationale, feasibility and strategic approaches to intensification of malaria control.

Parasitology Pre-Meeting Course – Saturday, December 6
Whole Genome Association Studies:
Understanding the Genetic Basis of Susceptibility to Infectious Diseases
This course will target scientists, physicians, clinicians, graduate students and educators with interests in the rapidly evolving field of whole genome association studies and how these approaches can be used to understand the basis for susceptibility or resistance to nfectious diseases. Topics will include an overview of whole genome association, a review of the state of the art in technology development, an overview of computational analyses and biostatistics and a discussion of some of the bioethical considerations associated with these studies.
