OVERVIEW

Annual Biomedical Research Conference for Minoritized Scientists (ABRCMS) 2025 is organized by American Society for Microbiology (ASM) and will be held from Nov 19 - 22, 2025 in San Antonio, Texas, United States of America.

Description:
At ABRCMS, scientists from all communities come together to share research positioned to meet today’s challenges and shape tomorrow’s future. That shared purpose depends on emerging scientists from every background showing up with passion and purpose. That's why we are proud to foster a welcoming, supportive community that empowers innovation for all.

The ABRCMS conference and programmatic goals are to:

Encourage students from the community college to graduate levels to pursue advanced training and careers in the biomedical and behavioral sciences.
Provide postdoctoral scientists, faculty mentors, advisors, and program leaders with resources for facilitating student success.
Engage, educate, inspire, and broaden participation in STEM education and careers to an interdisciplinary audience.
Provide a forum to explore the spectrum of STEM research and connect attendees with experts in the field.
Articulate the importance of the research to all career and education levels.

ABRCMS programming is a compilation of committee-generated topics, solicited proposals, and attendee feedback. Session leaders, panelists, and topics that provide varied perspectives ensure a strong program. Innovative sessions are strongly encouraged.
