ESCAIDE es un evento anual, y gira entre Estocolmo, la ciudad donde se asienta ECDC, y una ciudad de un Estado miembro de la UE o del EEE en años alternos.

The conference aims at: (a) strengthening and expanding the human network of all involved in applied infectious disease epidemiology (b) sharing scientific knowledge and experience in this field in Europe and internationally, and (c) providing a dedicated platform for EPIET, FETP (field epidemiology training programme) and EUPHEM (European Public Health Microbiology Training Programme) fellows to present their work.
