Dear friends and colleagues,
SAVE THE DATE: IEIDCXIII to be held in Utsunomiya, Japan from 23rd to 27th October 2028
On behalf of the International Committee (IC), it gives me great pleasure to announce that the 13th International Equine Infectious Disease Conference (IEIDCXIII) will be held as an in-person event in the vibrant city of Utsunomiya, Japan, from 23 October to 27 October 2028. The IC are indebted to the Japan Racing Association (JRA) for offering to host IEIDCXIII and we look forward to working with them in delivering what will be an excellent conference.
The format will be similar to recent editions, consisting of four days of scientific sessions, with plenary, oral and poster presentations, and an accompanying practitioners’ programme and trade stands showcasing our generous sponsors. There will be ample opportunity for everyone to reconnect and network with friends and colleagues from around the world and discuss the latest developments and all our shared interests in equine infectious diseases.
The conference venue and accommodation details will be announced in due course, with a range of options expected to be available close to the meeting facilities and the Call for Abstracts and further conference information will be released during 2027.
We look forward to welcoming you to Japan for what promises to be an exciting and memorable IEIDC meeting.
With all best wishes
Dr Richard Newton
Chair: International Organising Committee
