Atlanta Nerdapalooza 2025: AI, Bugs & Vaccine Drama
From October 19 to 22, Atlanta’s Georgia World Congress Center transforms into ID Week HQ, where thousands of infectious-disease pros—including doctors, med students, and actual bug nerds like Dr. Sophie Katz—brag about their latest vaccines and AI wizardry. Hosted by the Infectious Disease Society of America and five other ultra-specific societies (try saying that after a few coffees), this four-day marathon packs over 250 sessions on everything from RSV shots to antimicrobial trapeze acts. Bonus plot twist: the CDC might make an appearance amid government shutdown chaos, like an awkward cameo you didn’t expect but secretly hoped for.
