On behalf of the Executive Committee of the American Society for Rickettsiology (ASR), we are pleased to announce the return of the “Spotlight on Rickettsia”. This Virtual Series will run from November through April (4^th Wednesday of the Month – except December) and will showcase topics of interest for the rickettsiology community. 

With the “Spotlight on Rickettsia”, ASR members can connect from anywhere, at any time and will continue to be scientifically and socially engaged. Spotlight on Rickettsia will also promote the flexibility and environmental sustainability that virtual meetings offer in addition to greater geographical, financial, and social diversity.
