Tracks help you build a personalized ASM Microbe experience. With each track focused on a different scientific area, you can find everything you need in one place: your track hub. The best part? You’re not limited to 1 track.

Choose sessions across all 8 tracks for a cross-disciplinary experience.

• Antimicrobial Agents and Resistance (AAR)
  The Antimicrobial Agents and Resistance (AAR) track explores the latest research pertaining to antimicrobial drugs and their resistance mechanisms. The AAR track highlights a broad range of topics, including surveillance and global epidemiology, mechanisms of resistance, antimicrobial discovery (from pre-clinical investigations to post-marketing data), antimicrobial stewardship, novel approaches to infection diagnosis and treatment, and pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic principles to optimize antimicrobial design and use.
• Applied and Environmental Science (AES)
  The Applied Environmental Science (AES) track fosters broad understanding and collaboration between 10 sub-tracks, based on a fundamental, shared interest in how microbes work in diverse environments. The AES track is designed for scientists with a variety of backgrounds in the basic sciences, engineering, public health, and food production. Topics include basic and applied microbiology in soil, food, lakes, oceans, drinking water systems, deserts, urban population centers and other built environments.
• Clinical Infections and Vaccines (CIV)
  The Clinical Infections and Vaccines (CIV) track encompasses clinical and epidemiological studies in adult and pediatric infectious diseases, global health issues, including emerging infectious diseases and tropical medicine, and recent developments and clinical studies in vaccines. This track is designed for infectious disease physicians, clinical microbiologists, epidemiologists, public health officials, and pharmacists to learn about the latest advances in clinical and basic science.
• Clinical and Public Health Microbiology (CPHM)
  The Clinical and Public Health Microbiology (CPHM) track provides laboratory directors, medical technologists, clinicians, infection preventionists, and public health officials with the most up-to-date developments and cutting-edge findings in the field. The CPHM track delves into multiple infectious disease sub-disciplines, including novel diagnostic technology, susceptibility testing, clinical laboratory biosafety and biosecurity, antimicrobial and diagnostic stewardship, surveillance and epidemiology, and “One Health.”
• Ecology, Evolution, and Biodiversity (EEB)
  The Ecology, Evolution, and Biodiversity (EEB) track is defined by research that takes place in laboratory, clinical, engineered, and natural settings. The EEB track drives advancement in ecological and evolutionary theory of microbes and other organisms in basic and applied research and promotes microbial ecology, evolution, and biodiversity in biological education.
• Host-Microbiome Biology (HMB)
  The Host Microbe Biology (HMB) track explores pathogenic and symbiotic relationships between microbes and their hosts, as well as the microbiome, and is the place for scientists studying genetics, physiology, and virulence of microbes at the basic science level to get the latest insights on mechanisms that shape host-microbe relationships.
• Molecular Biology and Physiology (MBP)
  The Molecular Biology and Physiology (MBP) track covers a broad spectrum of microbiological phenomena with the goal of understanding the basic mechanisms of microbial life at the molecular, cellular, and multi-cellular levels.
• Profession of Microbiology (POM)
  The Profession of Microbiology (POM) track covers topics related to education, career choices, diversity and inclusion, professional development, and science communication and outreach.
