For the programme, abstract lists and poster listings, see the conference home page and the associated events pages. Background on the organisation is set out in About INHSU.

The contact page for INHSU 2019, the eighth International Conference on Hepatitis Care in Substance Users, serves as the central point of enquiry for delegates, presenters, sponsors and supporters. Held in Montréal, Canada in September 2019, the gathering brought together clinicians, researchers, advocates and peer workers to exchange evidence on hepatitis prevention, testing and treatment within substance use services. Anyone with a question about the programme, the scientific sessions, the exhibition or the associated social events can reach the organising team through the channels outlined here.

Conference operations were handled by the ASHM Conference and Events Division, the professional events arm that supports the International Network on Hepatitis in Substance Users. Its experienced staff manage registration, abstract submission, review, programme scheduling and on-site logistics for a large international meeting. Because the same division supports multiple conferences each year, contacting them early is the surest way to receive an accurate and timely reply to any question concerning the scientific programme or the running of the meeting.

Beyond formal enquiries, the page invites engagement with the wider conference community through a mailing list and an active social presence, encouraging registrants and followers to keep the conversation going long after the closing session. Tagging and sharing conference updates helped sustain momentum around hepatitis care in substance users, connecting delegates across regions where such services are still developing. Following these channels is a simple way to remain informed about future editions, network activities and collaborative opportunities.

Material relating to the meeting is also widely available online. Video recordings of oral presentations, session highlights and panel discussions allow those unable to attend in Montréal to follow the proceedings, while slides and poster content can be viewed in digital format by readers and reviewers. Session documentation is typically circulated with permission from presenters, ensuring that slides remain available to the professional audience for reference, teaching and ongoing study.

Planning a visit to Montréal for the conference also raises practical considerations around travel, accommodation and local attractions, and information on these topics is published alongside the main conference content. Delegates needed to arrange visas, identify suitable hotels near the venue and navigate the city's transport network and cultural highlights. A dedicated travel assistance page supported attendees in coordinating these arrangements, complementing the scholarly programme and the exhibition area where industry partners and affiliated organisations presented their work.
