International Conference on Pediatric Infectious Diseases, Vaccines and Immunology (ICPIDVI-26)

The International Conference on Pediatric Infectious Diseases, Vaccines and Immunology (ICPIDVI-26) is a two-day hybrid international conference taking place on 9–10 October 2026 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Organized by Research Plus, the conference provides a platform for researchers, scientists, academics, healthcare professionals, and industry representatives to exchange knowledge and discuss current developments in pediatric infectious diseases, vaccinology, and immunology. The scientific programme explores important developments in the prevention, diagnosis, and management of infectious diseases affecting children. Discussions cover recent research into the etiology, pathogenesis, epidemiology, diagnosis, and treatment of pediatric infections, as well as emerging trends in the global burden and spread of childhood infectious diseases. A major focus of the conference is pediatric vaccination and vaccinology. Sessions examine innovative vaccination strategies, new vaccine candidates and delivery approaches, pediatric vaccine clinical trials, vaccine efficacy and safety, immunization schedules, and challenges associated with vaccine hesitancy. The programme also considers public health strategies aimed at improving vaccine confidence and immunization coverage among children and communities. The conference further addresses pediatric immunology, including the ways children's immune systems respond to infectious agents and vaccines. Topics include vaccine-induced immunity and the clinical implications of primary and secondary immunodeficiencies, providing participants with broader perspectives on the relationship between immune function and susceptibility to pediatric infections. In addition to scientific presentations, ICPIDVI-26 provides opportunities for researchers and healthcare professionals to present original work through oral and poster presentations. Keynote sessions, technical discussions, and opportunities for professional networking allow participants to exchange research findings, clinical experiences, and perspectives with an international community of professionals. The hybrid format enables participants to attend either in person or virtually, supporting broader participation and international knowledge exchange. The conference also provides opportunities for research collaboration and recognition of outstanding contributions through Best Paper and Best Presentation awards. ICPIDVI-26 is relevant to pediatricians, infectious disease physicians, immunologists, researchers, scientists, clinicians, family physicians, general practitioners, nurses, pharmacists, public health professionals, epidemiologists, and medical students. Through its multidisciplinary scientific programme, the conference aims to promote knowledge exchange, collaboration, and continued discussion of advances in pediatric infectious diseases, vaccines, and immunology.
