Your Science, Your Community: Explore Our 9 Scientific Tracks
Tracks help you build a personalized ASM Microbe experience. With each track focused on a different scientific area, you can easily plug in to your community, navigate and select sessions and explore research presentations that align with your interests.
Remember: you're not limited to 1 track — pick and choose from different tracks and attend cross-track symposia to see cutting-edge science across disciplines.
Through tracks, you can:
- Easily navigate 200+ scientific sessions and find research related to your work. Use our curated itineraries or browse the program by track for a quick guide to the latest science in your field and related fields.
- Connect and collaborate with peers and experts in your community. Dedicated poster sessions and poster and oral talks are segmented by tracks and allow you to instantly connect with colleagues who share your scientific interests.
- Browse the exhibit hall by track! The exhibit hall features Track hubs, informal open spaces where you have short, interactive presentations on track-specific topics.
The Antimicrobial Agents and Resistance (AAR) track features the latest on the discovery and development of new antimicrobial drugs in the pipeline, and their associated resistance mechanisms.
