The IDI Trainee Association (IDI-TA) is looking for trainees interested in becoming new members and/or serving in IDI-TA officer positions. IDI-TA officer nominations are currently being accepted! Apply here by Monday, February 2, 2026, to be considered for an officer position or to join IDI-TA. The IDI-TA encourages trainees from all disciplines to join and/or apply for an officer position.
The IDI-TA is an organization run by trainees for trainees to support their activities and to provide opportunities for growth within the infectious disease space. IDI-TA membership is open to all trainees (postdoctoral fellows/scholars/scientists, clinical fellows, professional students, graduate students, undergraduate students and lab employees [e.g., research assistants/associates]) interested in infectious disease research. Like the IDI, the IDI-TA is intentionally interdisciplinary, and trainees from all disciplines are encouraged to join. Membership in this organization provides trainees with opportunities for networking, social events, and workshops as well as for career advancement and development. IDI-TA advocates for trainees to gain greater access to resources and ensure trainees maintain a greater role in deciding the scope of opportunities related to infectious disease for students across campus.
