Other: career fair, poster session, receptions, etc.
The meeting includes many different kinds of sessions.
The plenary speakers this year include David Brooks, a New York Times columnist; Dr. Darrell Kirch and Dr. Marsha Rappley, who represent the leadership of the AAMC; Dr. Siddhartha Mukherjee, author of The Emperor of All Maladies and The Gene; and a panel of physicians talking about their experiences as patients, and how that has shaped their approaches to medicine.
Most of the program consists of concurrent sessions that cover specific topics as well as updates from AAMC programs & services, and other partners like the NRMP. One concurrent sessions that may interest you include Learners Leading Learners: a showcase of student-led initiatives around the country, and I encourage you to explore the program agenda as you plan for the meeting.
