Ilaria Capua
Ilaria Capua is currently a Member of the Italian Parliament and Vice-President of the 7th Parliamentary Commission for Culture, Science and Education. Therefore,
she has taken a leave of absence from her position as
Director of the Division of Comarative Biomedical Sciences at the Istituto Zooprofilattico Sperimentale delle
Venezie, Legnaro (Padua), Italy; her division hosts the
Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations
(FAO), the World Organization for Animal Health (OIE)
Reference Laboratories for animal and avian influenzas
and Newcastle disease, rabies and the OIE Collaborating Centre for Diseases at the Human-Animal Interface.
She is also a visiting professor at the Centre for Virus
Research at the University of Glasgow. Her group in Legnaro of over 70 staff provides diagnostic expertise globally and conducts cutting-edge research on influenza
viruses and viral zoonoses.
She has extensive experience in coordinating international research projects funded by the European Commission, and has also worked closely with FAO, managing
Technical Cooperation Projects covering 40 countries,
and with OIE in international activities and twinning projects. She is author or co-author of over 200 publications
in peer-reviewed journals as well as editor of scientific
books and of books and articles for the general public. In 2006 she ignited an international debate on enhancing interdisciplinary collaboration to foster transparency of genetic data of influenza viruses, which has
promoted a review of international health policies on
data sharing to improve pandemic preparedness.
In 2007 she was among the winners of the Scientific
American 50 Award and, in 2008, was included among
Seed Magazine’s Revolutionary Minds for leadership in
science policy. She is the first female recipient of the
Penn Vet World Leadership in Animal Health Award, the
most prestigious award in veterinary medicine (2011).
In 2012 she became a Grande Ufficiale della Repubblica
Italiana, the Order of Merit of the Italian Republic awarded by the Italian President.

Research interests
Her areas of research include viral diseases of birds,
mammals and fish, with particular reference to zoonotic viral infections. Her group is actively involved
in the epidemiology, evolution and phylogeny of avian influenza viruses and in the development of novel
vaccines for influenza infections. In addition, studies
on interspecies transmission mechanisms and on the
metabolic consequences of influenza infection have
become core parts of her research activities. The group
also functions as an international reference laboratory
for rabies and lyssaviruses, which is involved in molecular evolution studies and the development of novel
control and prevention strategies. Other areas of interest include diagnosis and control of Newcastle disease
and coronavirus infections in poultry, pathogenesis and
vaccine development for viral diseases of fish and poultry and research on selected viral zoonotic agents, including astroviruses, West Nile virus and related flaviviruses. The application and integration of advanced tools
in molecular genetics and bioinformatics for research
focusing on infectious diseases at the animal-human
interface is also a key activity of her group.
Ilaria Capua will be presented with her award during
the ESCMID Excellence Award ceremony by Gunnar
Kahlmeter, ESCMID President, and Giuseppe Cornaglia,
ESCMID Past President, on Monday, 12 May 2014, 14.30
– 15.30 in Hall C. During this ceremony she will give her
recipient's lecture: ‘Close encounters of the third kind –
pathogens and globalisation’.
Michael Ramharter will be presented with his award
during the ESCMID Young Investigator Awards Session
on 13 May 2014 at 11.30 – 12.30 in Hall E. During the
session, he will present his work: ‘Development of antimalarial drugs in Lambaréné, Gabon’.

Research Interests
He investigates innate immune responses in sepsis,
with a special interest in sepsis caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Burkholderia
pseudomallei and Salmonella typhi. Recent interests
include the role of gut microbiota during severe bacterial infections and optimisation of antibiotic therapy
for – among others – cellulitis / erysipelas. He currently
steers the European Sepsis Academy grant initiative
and the European Melioidosis Network. His work has
been published in Nat Rev Microbiol, PLoS Pathog, PLoS
Medicine, N Engl J Med and other journals.
Exhibition
Research Interests
Starting from the preclinical evaluation of antimalarial drugs, he developed a strong interest in the
clinical development of antimalarial combination therapies. He has led a series of clinical trials investigating
novel drugs and drug combinations for the treatment
and prevention of malaria in children and pregnant
women – two of the most vulnerable patient populations in sub-Saharan Africa. Besides malaria, his main
research activities focus on the epidemiology and management of neglected tropical diseases including schistosomiasis and echinococcosis and other infectious
diseases occurring in the tropics.
Joost Wiersinga
He received his medical training at the University of
Amsterdam (The Netherlands) with additional courses
at the Mayo Clinic (Rochester, MN) and the National
Institutes of Health (NIH, Bethesda, MD). He achieved
his PhD on the topic ‘On Toll-like receptors and the innate immune response in sepsis caused by Burkholderia pseudomallei (melioidosis)’, cum laude under the
guidance of Professor Tom van der Poll (University of
Amsterdam) and Professor Sharon Peacock (University
of Oxford); during this period he worked in Thailand at
the Wellcome Trust South-East Asia Major Overseas Programme in Bangkok. Previous awards won by him are
the O'Callaghan PhD Award, the Andreas Bonn Medallion
and the GSK ICAAC Award. At the moment, he divides his
time between patient care at the Department of Medicine (sub-specialty Infectious Diseases), teaching and
research in the Center for Experimental Molecular Medicine (CEMM) and the Center for Infection and Immunity
(CINIMA), all at the Academic Medical Center, University
of Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
General Information
Michael Ramharter
He is Associate Professor at the Medical University of
Vienna, Austria, and leader of the Infectious Disease
Control Group – a scientific working group co-affiliated
to the Institut für Tropenmedizin, Universität Tübingen,
and the Centre de Recherches Médicales de Lambaréné
in the Central African country of Gabon. Early in his career he worked under the guidance of Walther H. Wernsdorfer on the preclinical development of anti-malarials
in the Thai-Myanmar border region – an experience
which sparked an ever-increasing interest in the clinical
investigation of infectious diseases in the tropics. He
shifted the focus of his work to Central Africa when he
joined Professor Peter G. Kremsner’s team at the Centre
de Recherches Médicales de Lambaréné, at the Albert
Schweitzer Hospital in Gabon. He has held postdoctoral
positions at the Institut für Tropenmedizin, Universität Tübingen, and the Institut Pasteur, Université de la
Méditerranée, Marseille, France. He currently works as
a specialist in Internal Medicine and consultant in Infectious Diseases and Tropical Medicine at the Division
of Infectious Diseases and Tropical Medicine headed by

C.albicans was always the dominant one [p-value for trend test between years 2001-2010
Introduction and Purpose
Candida spp. are the most common fungal pathogens responsible for invasive diseases
in humans. Among them, Candida albicans is in general responsible for more than half of
all Candida infections. However, recent studies showed a remarkable shift from C.albicans
to non-albicans Candida species (NAC) at least in a number of centres. Candida krusei is
known to be intrinsically resistant to fluconazole. Moreover, a decreased susceptibility to
fluconazole among other NAC, especially for Candida glabrata has been reported. The
changing epidemiology of candidemia and antifungal susceptibility data have an impact
on the preferred empirical antifungal regimen. This study was undertaken to (i) state
for C.albicans and non-albicans Candida species (NAC) was non-significant (p>0.05)].
There were 213 Candida strains with available AST results (123 C.albicans, 37 Candida
parapsilosis, 27 Candida tropicalis, 12 C. glabrata, 5 C. krusei, 3 Candida kefyr, 3 Candida
guilliermondii and one of each Candida dubliniensis, Candida lusitaniae, Candida rugosa).
Among them, there were 188 isolates tested against fluconazole, 145 isolates tested
against voriconazole, 151 isolates tested against itraconazole and 99 isolates tested
against caspofungin. Available AST results interpreted according to the currently approved
species-specific CLSI breakpoints are given in Table-2.
the ranking of Candida isolates among all positive blood cultures in our centre; ii) define
the species distribution of Candida strains responsible for bloodstream infections and
Table-2. The number of Candida isolates with available AST results interpreted according to
explore whether there is any potential increase in non-albicans Candida as compared to
currently approved CLSI breakpoints*
C. albicans; and to (iii) determine the influence of currently approved CLSI breakpoints
on interpretation of antifungal susceptibility test (AST) results.

Conclusions
(1) Candida spp. play a prominent role among the common bloodstream isolates in our
centre.
(2) Among all Candida species, C. albicans has been the most common cause of
candidemia and this trend has not changed during the study period.
(3) Resistance to tested antifungal drugs is not common among our candidemia isolates
except for itraconazole.
(4) We observed decreased susceptibility to fluconazole for our C.glabrata strains. This
is possibly due to the intrinsic feature of this species for susceptibility to fluconazole
and the conclusive nonexistence of the category of “susceptible” in the currently revised
breakpoint scale.
