University of Michigan at IDWeek 2026

Oct 21–24, 2026 Washington, DC ~12k attendees Website

University of Michigan brings 27 presentations to IDWeek 2026 in Washington. Its program centres on C. difficile and antibiotic stewardship, from staffing models to penicillin allergy testing in primary care, and on genome sequencing for tracking spread. Sequencing work traces true household spread of RSV and shared spaces that move MRSA through veterans' community living centers.
