ORCHESTRA goes ECCMID 2024
ORCHESTRA proudly presents a vast variety of research results at the European Congress of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases (ECCMID), held from April 27-30 2024 in Barcelona, Spain.
ECCMID is one of the largest conferences in the field of clinical microbiology and infectious diseases in Europe and brings together leading experts and professionals in its field. ECCMID 2024 again promises exciting presentations and discussions, and ORCHESTRA contributes to it with 13 accepted submissions.

The oral and poster sessions presented by ORCHESTRA researchers include comprehensive analysis of COVID-19 research and response strategies, investigating the long-COVID syndrome, neurosensorial assessments, immunological responses to vaccines, gut microbiota dynamics, DNA methylation changes, viral evolution, and therapeutic interventions.
The oral presentations of this year aim to optimize evidence generation in the field of infectious diseases, especially during pandemics. WP2 looked at Post-COVID-Condition dynamics with a Latent Transition Analysis. WP1 introduces the Cohort Coordination Board (CCB), which offers a trusted environment for exchange and discussion.
The posters target a wide range of COVID-19 research, reflecting the wide scope of research that ORCHESTRA undertakes. Among others, researchers in ORCHESTRA assessed the mRNA vaccine effectiveness in people living with HIV (PLWH), developed a multi-scale model integrating viral kinetics, disease severity, and transmission risk to anticipate the impact of antiviral strategies, and monitored Italian healthcare workers to determine the incidence, characteristics, and clinical course of SARS-CoV-2 breakthrough infections.
