I just returned from Potsdam and the 14th ESCMID-SHEA Training Course in Hospital Epidemiology. The faculty and students were all incredible people and I really enjoyed the interactive discussions. It all started with a wonderful dinner at Professor Petra Gastmeier's home and thanks to the Aesculap Akademie staff, we truly were Sans Souci "Without Worries." Looking forward to future courses in Brussels and other wonderful locales.
