We have successfully completed the course titled “Application of New Rapid Diagnostic and Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing Methods for Bloodstream Infections,” organized with the support of the European Society of Infectious Diseases (ESCMID) and KUISCID. In this intensive three-day program, approximately 60 participants from various European countries and 20 expert scientists participated both in theoretical and practical sessions on the application of antimicrobial susceptibility testing.
