The 2018 Annual Scientific Meeting was a great success! It was our highest attended ASM to date with 331 attendees, and 122 attendees at the Satellite Session. Highlights included featured presentations such by David Jett, PhD (Satellite Session), and at ASM, Marilyn Huestis, PhD, Luanne Thorndyke, MD, and Arthur Kellermann, MD.

The 3-day meeting also featured outstanding platform and poster presentations, special events such as MedTox Shark Tank, and the interactive Stimulus Lab: Don't Touch, Taste, or Smell! Read about award recipients below!
