Welcome note

Dear Colleagues and Friends,

It is our great pleasure to invite you to attend the 17th International Symposium on Ticks and Tick-borne Diseases (ISTTBD-XVII), to be held from 17 to 19 March 2027 in Weimar, Germany.

For more than three decades, ISTTBD has provided a unique forum for researchers, clinicians, veterinarians, public health professionals, and industry partners to exchange ideas and advance our understanding of ticks and tick-borne diseases. We are delighted to continue this tradition and bring together colleagues from around the world once again in the welcoming setting of the Leonardo Hotel Weimar.

The symposium programme will bring together keynote lectures by internationally recognized experts, oral and poster presentations, flash talks highlighting poster contributions, the prestigious Sinnecker-Kunz Award competition for Early Career Researchers and lots of opportunities to interact with colleagues. ISTTBD-XVII will therefore offer an excellent opportunity to share your research, learn about the latest developments in the field, and establish new collaborations.

We look forward to welcoming you to Weimar and to another stimulating and memorable ISTTBD meeting.

 

Prof. Dr. Anna Moniuszko-Malinowska
Univ.-Prof. Dr. Ard Nijhof
Dipl.-Biol. Dr. Olaf Kahl
