IDWeek is registered as an international meeting with the International Visitors Office. It is recommended foreign participants apply for their visas as early as possible. The International Visitors Office recommends at least three to four months before the meeting.
Some consulates may have backlogs in scheduling visa interviews. Therefore, applicants should first consult the U.S. Department of State’s website to view visa appointment and processing wait times.
New for IDWeek 2024: the Global BugHub Stage! IDWeek is looking for presentations that touch on your experience of working in infectious diseases and presentations that ultimately lead to a greater understanding of our diverse field. Submissions for the Global Stage should resonate with global narratives and encourage presentations in a variety of languages. Talks will be 20 minutes in length and don’t require a PowerPoint presentation. Presentations will be selected by IDWeek leadership.
Application opens March 26. Deadline is June 26.
