The AAHS 2012 Annual Meeting theme is “Learning from Friends”
- Life-long learning is an integral part of hand surgery and hand therapy practice. This meeting has been geared to provide a stimulating educational experience in a relaxed and engaging format with a lively social program.
Along with the traditional free papers, Association members will now have a unique opportunity to share their new ideas at the “Members Forum”, a session for 2 minute presentations on member innovations. Delegates can choose from among 24 complementary Instructional Courses (including 2 courses certified for MOC by the ABPS) with faculty comprised of internationally renowned hand surgeons and therapists focusing on both common clinical issues and challenging problems. Presentations will be case-based explaining principles of safe practice supported by outcomebased evidence. The program also includes panel discussions comparing traditional and newer treatment options for Dupuytren’s disease, nerve gaps and wrist arthritis. “Hot-button” management controversies will be discussed in a series of lively debates between experts. Along with the Presidential address given by Dr. Steve McCabe, featured speakers will include Dr Terry Light, Professor and Chair of Orthopaedic Surgery at Loyola University, Chicago, and Dr. Mandayam A. Srinivasan, Senior Research Scientist from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. The Association especially extends a warm welcome to our guest members from the Brazilian Hand Society and look forward to 3 days of learning and fellowship across the continent.
