The Third Coast Center for AIDS Research (CFAR) congratulates our members who presented at the Chicago Department of Public Health Syndemic Infectious Disease Bureau’s third annual Provider Conference, “From Fragmentation to Integration: Unified Approaches to Syndemic Infectious Diseases.”
The free, one-day conference is a continuing medical education event for healthcare professionals. The conference was hosted at the Chicago Cultural Center on November 5, 2025, and featured presentations focused on advancing cross sector partnerships to confront the resurgence of syndemic infectious diseases. It was followed by a networking event, which featured poster presentations by Infectious Disease fellows from universities in the Chicagoland area. View the conference agenda to learn more.
