About the Symposium

Following the outstanding success of our 2025 edition, we are thrilled to invite you to join us online for the II Global Virtual Symposium on Schistosomiasis scheduled for June 2, 2026. Last year, we featured pioneering talks on schistosomiasis treatments, immunopathology, and control strategies from leading experts at Tufts, Penn State, Stanford, and beyond.

Your engagement last year sparked invaluable collaborations, and this year’s program builds on that momentum with fresh insights into drug development, genomics, and global health challenges.

Schistosomiasis remains a major global health challenge, causing significant morbidity and mortality worldwide. This symposium aims to foster collaboration, share cutting-edge research, and promote innovative solutions to improve public health outcomes.

This 1-day symposium will provide a valuable platform for basic, clinical, and translational research discussions. We look forward to welcoming you all on June 2, 2026 — Online.
