Welcome
The Division of Infectious Diseases at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill has a weekly lecture series for its post-doctoral subspecialty fellows and students rotating on the consultation service. Topics are spread over a two-year cycle, with core areas on antimicrobials, HIV/AIDS care, and medical microbiology repeated annually, to accommodate new fellows.

All interested students, faculty, and staff are invited to attend. Lectures are held after the Division's Friday conference at the UNC Lineberger Cancer Center. To see a map or get directions to or from this location, please click here.
