3 of 4: How technology, artificial intelligence, automation, and data are reshaping sterile processing leadership

Part 2 of 4: Recruitment may bring people into sterile processing. Development is what determines whether they stay.

At IDWeek 2026, Rachel Sidebottom discusses research exploring phage-antibiotic combinations, the potential for predictive modeling, and an investigation identifying an ST5 strain of nontoxigenic Corynebacterium diphtheriae circulating in Albuquerque.

Finding infections earlier is only part of the work. At IDWeek 2026, David Weber, MD, MPH, explored how broader surveillance and emerging technologies could help infection preventionists spend more time supporting safer care.

Two experts give an update ahead of the first season with a new mRNA vaccine against flu.

Part 1 of 4: How emerging sterile processing leaders are redefining leadership through trust, accountability, psychological safety, and professional development.

This week in infection prevention: Kenya’s Bundibugyo virus response shows why execution, not just planning, determines outcomes, and France reported the first known human Shamonda virus infection. Our roundup also covers brucellosis, blood donor screening, and long-acting HIV antibody findings from IDWeek 2026.

At IDWeek 2026, Jimmy Chang, PhD, discussed investigational HIV antibodies TMB-365 and TMB-380, explaining their complementary mechanisms, early study findings, and ongoing evaluation as a long-acting maintenance regimen.
