This article summarises recent advances reported at the 9th Lorne Infection and Immunity Conference. This exciting conference hosted speakers in the fields of innate and adaptive responses to infection including host–pathogen interactions as well as novel strategies for the detection, control and treatment of infectious diseases such as fluorescent antibiotics and vaccine development. Host–pathogen studies focused on a broad range of pathogens including malaria, CMV, influenza, dengue and Zika viruses, listeria and tuberculosis.
