The 14th Annual Antibiotics Symposium will be held November 19-21, 2024 at the Colorado State University SPUR Campus, 4777 National Western Dr., Denver, CO 80216.

The planning committee is in the process of selecting presenters and speakers for the Symposium. Symposium topics will include an industry report on the current state of antibiotic stewardship, information on the latest antimicrobial stewardship and resistance research, regulatory updates, One Health collaborations, and more.

Last year’s Symposium program set the stage for two collaborative efforts that will in 2024. The Pork Checkoff supported a One Health pork tour in Minnesota in July that convened veterinary, public health, and  Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) leaders on a tour to multiple swine facilities to learn about biosecurity, stewardship practices, and more. This tour worked to bridge the gap between animal agriculture and human health professionals and connect leaders for more collaborative efforts to combat AMR. The second convening connected farmers and ranchers with CDC officials in Atlanta, GA in August, prior to the UN General Assembly meeting on antimicrobial resistance (AMR).
