WELCOME TO ACTMP3 IN
Dear Colleague, It is a great pleasure to invite you to attend the 3rd ASEAN
Congress of Tropical Medicine and Parasitology (ACTMP3) at the Windsor Suites
Hotel, 8 Sukhumvit 18-20, The Parasitology and Tropical
Medicine Association of Thailand is extremely proud to host
this regional conference. It is our sincere belief that the synergy of our
dedicated Thai parasitological Association and the vibrant venue of Parasitic infections used to be considered health problems
restricted to endemic areas. With globalization, the movement of people has
increased and health problems are decreasingly limited to single countries,
and have taken on a global dimension, becoming of greater general interest.
The growth in international trade in food from animals--the hosts of
parasites--may introduce infections to previously non-endemic areas. These
infection are considered emerging diseases that cause health problems in the
countries concerned, in terms of diagnosis and treatment. The Congress will discuss the main aspects of Tropical Medicine
and Parasitology, particularly parasitic diseases affecting communities in
Southeast Asia, as well as tourists traveling in Dr. Jitra Waikagul President The Parasitology and Tropical Medicine Association of C/- Department of Helminthology Faculty of Tropical Medicine, Tel: 66 (0) 2354-9100-19 ext. 1820, 1821, 1321 Fax: 66 (0) 2643-5600 E-mail: tmjwk@mahidol.ac.th |
