We look forward to welcoming you to another great Oxford Bone Infection Conference at the Examination Schools next year on 13-14 April 2026.

OBIC offers a fantastic opportunity to connect with and learn from colleagues involved in managing bone and joint infections.

The aim of this conference is not only to educate but also to share ideas and stimulate discussion. We hope this will lead to improved clinical practices and encourage research to strengthen the evidence base in this field.

The core principle of OBIC is multidisciplinary collaboration. We invite professionals of all levels, including orthopaedic and trauma surgeons, plastic surgeons, infection specialists, microbiologists, nursing and therapy staff, and researchers, to attend.

The programme will feature lectures, workshops, and interactive sessions. Internationally renowned speakers will deliver state-of-the-art presentations, including the prestigious Cierny-Mader Lecture, which is awarded each year to honour “excellence and innovation in the multidisciplinary management of bone and joint infection.”

More information will be announced here on the website.
