The published audience description named medical examiners, forensic pathologists, and death-investigation professionals.

The five-day format with an awards luncheon, business meeting and leadership workshops favours members who want to be part of the association's governance and networking; clinicians from other specialties would get less, although simulcast sessions and 30 days of recordings were billed to help remote participants.

Forensic pathologists and medical examiners usually wear business casual to business attire for sessions, with smarter clothing for the awards luncheon. Casual clothes and running shoes suit the welcome reception and the Rigor Run/Walk add-on.
