The theme of the conference is "Neglected Tropical Parasitic Diseases –Unawareness to Awareness". This theme is chosen due to the reason that every coming batch of doctors after completion of their academic medical career are concern about the bacterial or viral infections.

Some of the parasitic infestations are common about which everyone is aware but some of the parasitic infestations are actually present & causing problems to the society but they are probably neglected due to the unawareness in the masses as well as medical fraternity.
