The Encephalitis Society Conference 2020
8th December, 2020, London UK and online
This is the only international conference dedicated exclusively to encephalitis.
This year, the conference will be a hybrid event – this means there are both face-to-face (Royal College of Physicians, London) and virtual places.

The Programme also includes 12 oral presentations, 24 poster presentations and a book reading and interview with Dr Ava Easton and Brian Deer, author of The Doctor Who Fooled the World: Andrew Wakefield’s war on vaccines.
