Dear Colleagues

On behalf of the Scientific and Organizing Committees, it is our great pleasure to invite you to participate in the 2nd International Congress of the Jordan Society of Infectious Diseases, held in collaboration with the Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA). The congress will take place from Thursday, April 30 to Friday, May 1, 2026, at the Landmark Hotel, Amman, Jordan.

This congress aims to bring together infectious disease specialists, clinicians, researchers, and healthcare professionals from Jordan, the region, and around the world to exchange knowledge, share expertise, and discuss the latest advances in the prevention, diagnosis, and management of infectious diseases.

The scientific program will feature a comprehensive and dynamic agenda, including state-of-the-art lectures, focused symposia, and interactive sessions addressing current challenges, emerging infections, antimicrobial resistance, and evidence-based clinical practice. In parallel, a medical exhibition will showcase the latest innovations, technologies, and research developments presented by leading pharmaceutical and medical technology companies.

We warmly encourage physicians, researchers, fellows, and trainees to actively participate in this important regional and international scientific event, which provides a valuable platform for learning, collaboration, and professional networking.

We extend our sincere appreciation to our partners, sponsors, and participants for their continued support, and we look forward to welcoming you to Amman for an inspiring and memorable scientific meeting.
