A look back at IDWeek 2024
IDWeek 2024 was held earlier this month in Los Angeles, CA from October 16-19, 2024. Over 10,000 ID health professionals from various institutions and backgrounds around the world came together to collaborate, connect, and learn from each other’s patient care, research, and public health expertise. The IDCRC was well represented, with 33 presentations delivered by our members. We're proud to highlight a few of these individuals, below.
- Natalya Beneschott, MD, IDCRC mentoring cohort member, delivered a poster presentation.
- Angelica Cifuentes Kottkamp, MD, former IDCRC mentee, shared the latest results from the mpox vaccine study during her Best Abstract Presentation in the Smadel Lecture Plenary session.
- Carlos del Rio, MD, Emory Vaccine Center VTEU PI, participated in the Opening Plenary titled Navigating the Next Pandemic: Policy and Practice Integration.
