ASCIA 2018 Conference registration is now open
Registration is now open at www.ascia2018.com for the ASCIA 2018 conference, the 29th annual conference of the Australasian Society of Clinical Immunology and Allergy (ASCIA).
The ASCIA 2018 conference will run for 3 days, from Wednesday 5 to Friday 7 September 2018 at the National Convention Centre in Canberra. It will include concurrent sessions for Nurses and Medical Associate ASCIA members on Friday 7 September. The following events are also being held in conjunction with the conference:
- Centre for Food and Allergy Research (CFAR) Symposium 2018 on Tuesday 4 September
- ASCIA Autoimmunity Update on Saturday 8 September

In addition to 6 international speakers, and around 50 speakers and chairs from Australasia, we expect over 500 delegates to participate in this conference.
ASCIA annual conferences provide an international standard of continuing professional development and an opportunity to interact with colleagues working in these areas. ASCIA conferences are therefore a highlight of the year for ASCIA members and other health professionals with an interest in allergy and clinical immunology.
