Dear Friends,

Welcome to the National Conference in Pediatric Infectious Diseases (NCPID) 2026!

We, the Pune Chapter of the Indian Academy of Pediatrics along with Pediatric Infectious Diseases Academy (PIDA), the infectious diseases chapter of Indian Academy of Pediatrics, are proud to host this prestigious event from 27th to 29th November 2026.

Pune is the cultural and educational capital of India also called the 'Oxford of the East'. It is renowned for its majestic Shaniwar Wada, peaceful Aga Khan Palace, and the colorful Raja Dinkar Kelkar Museum—each telling stories of history, heritage, and resilience.

Imagine wandering through Pune’s vibrant streets, filled with the aroma of delicious misal pav, while exchanging ideas with experts and peers—this is the perfect backdrop for a conference packed with innovation and learning! And yes, perhaps you might see a Puneri Patya or two, reminding us all that Pune’s humor and warmth are as legendary as its history.

We strongly encourage you to register early and attend in large numbers. Come and be part of a "scientific feast" , where the brightest minds in pediatric infectious diseases will come together to share, learn, and innovate.

Get ready for an enriching experience—an academic and cultural celebration that you won’t forget! We look forward to welcoming you to Pune, the city where tradition, humor, and cutting-edge science meet.

See you at NCPID 2026!
