Why Attend #ACMT2026?
ACMT’s Annual Scientific Meeting is a place where cutting-edge research meets the joy of community. As a highly specialized discipline, it might be a challenge to find places to share and experience the wealth of toxicological study. #ACMT2026 aims to create that central hub, for networking, socializing, and immersing yourself in the world of toxicology.
Join us in creating a one-of-a-kind global toxicology community!
Neil deGrasse Tyson & Scott Hamilton Kennedy
Science & Storytelling: An Essential Partnership for a Better World
Join world-renowned astrophysicist, bestselling author, and host of Cosmos and StarTalk, Neil deGrasse Tyson, and Academy Award® nominee, writer and director, Scott Hamilton Kennedy, for the Bayer Lecture on March 21, at 12:00 PM.
How do we bridge the gap between expert knowledge and public understanding? How do we communicate complex science in ways that resonate? At a moment when truth, trust, and shared humanity are under strain – and when disinformation threatens public health, democracy, and the social contract itself – this session explores how one of humanity’s oldest tools can meet one of its most urgent challenges.
Dr. Nabarun Dasgupta
Donovan Lecture: The Changing Landscape of American Drugs
ACMT is proud to welcome Dr. Nabarun Dasgupta, 2025 MacArthur “genius” Award winner and TIME100 Next rising global leader, as our Donovan Lecture speaker. As a street drug scientist and founder of the UNC Street Drug Analysis Lab, Dr. Dasgupta has tested nearly 20,000 drug samples from communities across the country, amplifying patient voices in public health. His pioneering work in overdose prevention, harm reduction, and addiction treatment—including co-founding Project Lazarus and Remedy Alliance For The People—has transformed how we understand and respond to the evolving drug supply.
Join us on March 21, 2026, at 9:00 AM as Dr. Dasgupta shares critical insights on the rapidly changing landscape of American drugs and what it means for clinical practice.
Open Mic Competition
The ACMT Open Mic Competition offers medical toxicology fellows-in-training, residents, and medical students the opportunity to give a lecture in a national forum where experienced speakers can offer insight on both content and delivery.
Any topic relevant to medical toxicology is appropriate—historical topics, mystery cases, molecular mechanisms, educational development, etc. Above all, we are looking for engaging speakers and interesting presentations. Presenters are chosen by a panel of evaluators. Proposals are evaluated on content and originality.
Deadline to apply is January 5, 2026.
MedTox Case Panel
The Education Committee invites Fellows-in-Training and ACMT Members to submit a case of a unique or interesting patient for presentation at the MedTox Case Panel: Case-Based Conundrums taking place during the 2026 ACMT Annual Scientific Meeting, March 18-22, 2025 in Boston.
Three cases will be selected for presentation and discussion by a panel of Medical Toxicology specialists. All cases will be considered, but there is a specific interest in complex or controversial management issues encountered by the medical toxicologist.

About the Venue:
Hilton Boston Park Plaza
Step into a piece of history when you check in at the Hilton Boston Park Plaza, a true Boston landmark just steps from the lush Boston Public Garden and iconic Newbury Street. From its grand opening in 1927—where it pioneered in-room radios—to hosting luminaries like Winston Churchill and President Franklin D. Roosevelt, this hotel is a vibrant part of Boston’s story. You’ll be at the heart of the city, with Copley Square and Boston Common just a short stroll away.
Plus, this “city within a city” was once home to a top-floor hospital, complete with an operating room—truly a place where history and hospitality meet! Whether you’re here just for #ACMT2026 or also taking in some of the sights, the Hilton Boston Park Plaza promises a stay to remember.
Let the echoes of the past and the comforts of today make your conference experience one for the books!
