ASM Microbe 2022

ASM Microbe 2022 will be held 9-13 June 2022 in Washington, D.C.

ASM Microbe 2022 will also include a virtual component providing access to scientific programming and accommodating those who are unable or do not wish to attend in-person. Get details on the digital experience.

Antimicrobial agents and resistance, biofilms, HAIs, diagnostic immunology, antifungal agents, and pharmacological studies of antimicrobial agents are just some of the core topics covered in this can’t-miss event.
