A SUCCESSFUL SPRING ASSEMBLY

Thank you to our attendees, speakers and presenters for making the 2021 Virtual Scientific Assembly such a success! Though we were disappointed not to be able to meet in person, event Chair Christopher Colbert and Vice Chair Andy Little and the Continuing Medical Education Committee were ready with a contingency plan and quickly adapted for another virtual event .

More than 600 registrants logged in to sharpen their skills during 51 lectures, 2 keynote sessions, 3 EM Over Easy podcasts, 4 FOEM competitions and 7 hours of dedicated content for students and residents.

We are all hoping we can meet in person for the 2022 Spring Seminar, April 10-13 in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Registration is open now at acoep.org/2022-Spring-Seminar.
