The University of Hawaii at Hilo invites the public to the sixth International Scientific Workshop on Angiostrongylus cantonensis and Angiostrongyliasis (rat lungworm disease) from Jan. 5-8, 2020, at the Hilo Hawaiian Hotel on Banyan Drive in Hilo.
There is no fee, but all attendees must register by Sept. 1 at https://hilo.hawaii.edu/conferences/rat-lung-worm-2020/.
Experts from around the world will gather to present recent developments in detection, treatment, prevention, education, ecology and more.
