Andrea Cona

I am an Infectious Diseases specialist currently working as a consultant at ISMETT, a transplant centre located in Palermo (Itay).My daily clinical and research activities mainly focus on the infections of the immunocompromised host. More precisely, I deal with the rational use of antimicrobials, prevention and surveillance of donor-derived bacterial and fungal infections, with a specific focus on multidrug-resistant pathogens. From an academic point of view, in 2022 I completed my PhD programme in Clinical Research at the University of Milan. I am an active member of scientific societies (ESCMID and SIMIT) and ESCMID study groups (ESGAP, ESGICH, ESGIE).
