IDWeek Program

Call for Session Suggestions

Suggest a Session for IDWeek 2022 by Nov. 15

Have a great idea for session next year? Know a fabulous speaker? We want to hear your ideas! Submit a Session Suggestion for IDWeek 2022. You’ll be asked to provide potential learning objectives, possible speaker ideas, and presentation topics. All suggestions are welcome and appreciated.

Suggestion Submission Attestation Statement

Because there is a finite limit to how many sessions we can have at IDWeek, the selection process is very competitive. The program committee reserves the right to reject, alter and/or combine suggestions where applicable. IDWeek’s goal is to present cutting-edge science, cover a wide variety of infectious disease topics and provide a forum for scientific discovery and exchange. To better foster inclusion and opportunity at IDWeek, we strive for gender, geographic, practice and ethnic diversity in IDWeek sessions and submissions which achieve these goals have a better chance of being selected. Topics and speakers who have recently presented at IDWeek may not be accepted in a subsequent year to allow for other topics and speakers to participate.

The identity of the session submitter is blinded to the program committee until after the sessions are finalized. Due to the sheer volume, we are unable to provide feedback rationale for accepting, rejecting, or combining submitted sessions. However, accepted sessions will be included on the IDWeek website when finalized and published including any subsequent updates. If the title, topics, speakers, and moderators in a suggested session are accepted with minimal or no changes, the session submitter’s contributions will be acknowledged on the IDWeek website.

As part of IDWeek’s efforts to comport with ACCME policies, one member of the IDWeek Program Committee will serve as a moderator of each session. This moderator will have final authority over the direction and content of session in collaboration with the speakers and will also attest to the session’s balance and scientific objectivity.

Session Types

Caroline B. Hall Lectureship

The lectureship is dedicated to and honors Dr. Caroline B. Hall, a world renowned pediatrician, teacher, researcher, and founding member of PIDS. Dr. Hall held the position of professor of pediatrics and medicine at the University of Rochester School of Medicine for over 40 years. She was a legend in pediatric infectious diseases for her groundbreaking and prolific research on respiratory syncytial virus, human herpesvirus 6, and other respiratory viral pathogens and authored over 500 peer-reviewed publications. Her contributions significantly enhanced our understanding of diverse respiratory viral infections and resulted in the development of diagnostic and management guidelines for infections that continue to be important clinical references. Dr. Hall served as the fifth president of PIDS and was the Society’s historian. She was a member of the Institute of Medicine and the Royal College of Physicians and received numerous honors, including the Distinguished Physician and Distinguished Service awards from PIDS, the IDSA John F. Enders Lectureship, the Pan American Society for Virology Award, and the Robert M. Chanock Lifetime Achievement Award. The emphasis of the lectureship is to highlight innovative translational research focused on common infectious diseases, with special emphasis on clinical research and novel approaches to the epidemiology, diagnosis, management, prevention and treatment of these infections.

Edward H. Kass Lecture

Dr. Kass was one of the founding leaders of IDSA and served as the Society’s seventh president in 1970 as well as the Society’s secretary from 1964 to 1967. He was instrumental in securing IDSA’s role in publishing the Journal of Infectious Diseases, and he developed the concept for Reviews of Infectious Diseases – now Clinical Infectious Diseases. Not only was he a pioneer in the study of infection, he was an advocate for social justice and passionate about addressing poverty, racism and discrimination. The Kass lecture was initially established as a “history of medicine” lecture and has traditionally been given by a recognized educator, thought leader, and someone with a broad understanding of societal influences in medicine.

Interactive Sessions

Duration is either 75 or 105 minutes with four panelists. Interactive sessions generally consist of case presentations by the moderator(s), which are then discussed by the panelists. Moderators include case-based scenarios to allow for use with the audience response system allowing attendees to vote on diagnoses. The moderator will provide the answer to the case and the moderator and panelists will engage in a brief discussion of important points.

John F. Enders Lecture

Dr. Enders was the second president of IDSA and received a Nobel Laureate in Medicine in 1954 for the discovery of the ability of poliomyelitis viruses to grown in cultures of various types of tissue. This discovery led to the development of vaccines against polio, measles, rubella, and mumps, as well as other advances. His contributions also include major advances in the field of genetics, links between viruses and cancer, and insights into the pattern and process of tumor growth. The Enders lecture is intended to honor someone who has significant contributions in the field of medical virology.

Joseph E. Smadel Lecture

Dr. Smadel was a physician and investigator who created a bridge between basic laboratory science and the clinician, making significant contributions to the knowledge of psittacocsis, vaccinia, vairiola, myxomatosis, and viral encephalitis. During World War II, Dr. Smadel led a study of control measures of typhus fever in Egypt and southern Italy. Dr. Smadel served at the Department of Virus and Rickettsial Diseases of the Army Medical School, Walter Reed Army Institute of Research, and National Institutes of Health (NIH). He held the position of chief of virology and rickettsiology in the Division of Biologic Standards at NIH until his death. The Smadel lecture is intended to honor someone who has made a significant impact in public health.

Maxwell Finland Lecture

Dr. Finland served as the first president of IDSA and had a career that spanned over 50 years at Harvard University and Boston City Hospital. He was internationally recognized for his study of ID and antimicrobial agents in treatment. He is credited with influencing pioneering studies of antibiotic therapy and the treatment for pneumonia and respiratory injuries linked to exposure to noxious gases. He was also noted as establishing early identification of new infectious hazards and the emergence of dangerous new infections in hospitalized patients. This Finland lecturer is generally someone who has contributed in the areas of bacterial pathogenesis, antimicrobial agents, emerging infections, and hospital-acquired infections.

SHEA Lectureship

The SHEA Lectureship award is given annually to recognize the career contributions of a senior investigator in healthcare epidemiology and infection prevention and control. The selected speaker is chosen based on his or her notable contributions to the science of healthcare epidemiology, demonstration of ongoing dedication to advancing the field of epidemiology, demonstration of mentorship, and dedication to SHEA and its mission to prevent healthcare-associated infections and advance the science of healthcare epidemiology.

Industry sponsored affiliated events include up to 2-hour satellite symposia, 1-hour presentation theaters, and 45-minutes learning lounges. These events begin as early as Sept. 13 and continue through Oct. 2. Review the affiliated events schedule.

Extending Antibiotic Stewardship into Outpatient Settings

Date: Sept. 22, 2021 | Time: noon – 2 p.m. ET

Inappropriate antibiotic use in outpatient settings is a considerable public health problem. Antibiotic stewardship teams are increasingly being asked to develop and implement stewardship programs for their medical center or health system’s outpatient clinics. The approaches to outpatient stewardship need to be tailored to these settings, including data gathering, interventions, behavioral modifications, and education, and meet the added challenges of changes to outpatient healthcare delivery as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The primary objective of this didactic and active learning workshop is to give attendees effective tools that can be used to expand the world of stewardship into the outpatient arena.

All presentations will be pre-recorded and made available to registered attendees prior to Sept. 22. Join the speakers for a live Q&A session on the IDWeek Virtual Platform on Sept. 22 from noon – 2 p.m. ET Prior to Sept. 22, registrants will be able to access the virtual site to ensure they are able to connect properly before the start of the workshop.

The drive for the optimal guideline grading/rating of evidence framework has driven the emergence of the Grading of Recommendation Assessment, Development and Evaluation framework (GRADE). GRADE application in the production of clinical practice guidelines can result in trustworthy guideline recommendations, and as such it is imperative that persons who play a role in guideline panels have some training and orientation in the guideline development process itself, as well as an acute focus on the underpinnings of GRADE. This 4-hour workshop offers such training and orientation to attendees and particularly for those who plan to serve on guideline panels in the future.

Going fully virtual – date is now Sept. 23 from 10 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. ET. Registered attendees will receive links to the Zoom prior to Sept. 23.
