Dear Colleagues,

On the behalf of the Organizing Committee, it gives me a great pleasure to invite you to participate
in the International Conference on Fish Diseases and Fish Immunology which will take place in
Reykjavik Iceland from September 6 – 9, 2008 (www.yourhost.is/fishdiseases).

The understanding of infectious fish diseases and the causative agents, like viruses, bacteria and
parasites, has been growing fast lately in the international scientific society. In parallel there is an
increasing knowledge on host-pathogens interaction, including fish immunology and genome
analysis of the pathogens and several fish species.

The conference will host scientists from Europe and other parts of the world. The event will provide an exclusive platform to discuss the recent developments in the field. The host institute (Institute for Experimental Pathology, University of Iceland at Keldur, homepage: www.keldur.hi.is), has made remarkable developments in the research field in the recent past and there are ongoing experiments of interest. The conference is planned as a 60th anniversary of the host institute.

The conference will start with a plenary lecture given by dr. Laura Brown on Host-Pathogen Interaction. The sessions will include fish immunology, viral diseases of fish and causative agents, bacterial diseases of fish and causative agents, fish parasitology, communication networks in marine bacteria and diseases in cold water fish species.

This event will provide you with the opportunity to showcase your organization, its products or services through our Exhibition or Conference Sponsorship items to best suit your company needs.
