IDSA and Conexiant Launch IDSA Reporter, a Trusted News Destination for Infectious Disease Professionals

 New platform pairs IDSA's scientific authority with Conexiant's publishing and engagement capabilities to turn fast-moving developments into practical clinical insight

TAMPA, Fla., Oct. 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The Infectious Diseases Society of America and Conexiant today announced the launch of IDSA Reporter, a year-round digital news platform designed to help infectious diseases professionals quickly understand what new evidence, guidance, policy decisions and public health developments mean for clinical practice and public health.

Few areas of medicine move as quickly as infectious diseases. Emerging pathogens, antimicrobial resistance, new evidence, evolving screening and treatment guidance and fast-moving developments in epidemiology and public health create a constant flow of information that can be difficult to evaluate. IDSA Reporter will cut through that noise by bringing authoritative reporting, expert context and practical interpretation together in one destination.

Coverage will include breaking news, major research and guideline updates, public health and policy developments, reporting from IDWeek and other major meetings that cover breaking infectious disease developments, expert commentary and analysis of implications for clinical and public health practice. Content will be delivered through IDSAReporter.com, recurring email newsletters and social media channels.

"In infectious diseases, the challenge is not simply gaining access to information; it is quickly determining what is authoritative, clinically relevant and worth acting on," said Charlie Lee, Chief Executive Officer of Conexiant. "IDSA brings unmatched scientific authority and access to leading experts. Conexiant brings the specialty publishing, technology and HCP engagement capabilities to extend that authority across channels and throughout the year. Together, we are creating an always-on destination that helps infectious disease professionals move from breaking development to clinical meaning."

From Breaking Developments to Clinical Meaning

IDSA Reporter introduces an always-on publishing model for a field where evidence, guidance and public health conditions can change rapidly. Timely journalism will be paired with expert interpretation and practical clinical context, shortening the distance between a new development and a health care professional's understanding of what it means for patient care.

The collaboration brings together IDSA's scientific authority, subject matter expertise and access to leading infectious disease experts with Conexiant's newsroom, specialty publishing, technology and audience-development capabilities. Together, the organizations will create a year-round destination that helps clinicians quickly understand what new evidence, guidance, policy decisions and emerging threats mean for patient care and public health.

"Infectious disease professionals need news and information they can trust, but they also need it delivered with the speed and context required by today's environment," said Jeanne Marrazzo, MD, FIDSA, CEO of IDSA. "IDSA Reporter extends our commitment to the field by creating a year-round connection between our ID community and the clinicians, scientists and public health professionals who rely on credible information to make the decisions that save lives."

Engaging the Infectious Disease Community Year-Round

The platform will draw on IDSA's global community of more than 13,000 clinicians, scientists and public health experts and Conexiant's relationships with nearly 200 associations, publishers and health systems, broadening the reach and useful life of important infectious disease information.

IDSA Reporter is now live at IDSAReporter.com. Launching ahead of IDWeek 2026, taking place October 21–24 in Washington, D.C., the platform will debut with comprehensive meeting coverage and continue year-round across the website, newsletters and social channels.
