Accessing the Abstract Submission Site

ASM is hosting the IMARI abstract submissions site. To submit an abstract, users must log in through the ASM Single Sign-On (SSO) system. This login system enhances security and ensures that your information and submissions are protected.

Important details: 

  • A user account is required to log in and access the abstract submission platform. 
  • Creating an account is complimentary and there is no fee to create an account. 
  • Individuals are not required to be an ASM or Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA) member to submit an abstract or create a user account.
