The 10th Infectious Disease Research Global Network Forum was held on 2nd -3rd February, 2024, as part of the Joint Usage and Research Center Project of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology, and co-hosted with the Chiba University Mycological Medical Research Center. The Forum was held at the Medical Research Building and the Pharmaceutical Research Building II, Chiba University. On the Poster Session (2nd Feb.), 30 posters were presented, mainly by young researchers. The Workshop session (3rd Feb.) was held in a hybrid format (on-site and online). Nine famous researchers from the United States, Brazil, Hong Kong, South Korea, Germany, and Japan gave excellent lectures under the theme "Host-pathogen interactions in respiratory infections." A total of 157 people participated and actively discussed with each other during the Forum. Thank you for your participation, and we sincerely appreciate everyone's support.
