You've earned it.
1. NeuroFest 2021 on the Beach in Santa Barbara
Mark your calendar for the California Neurology Society (CNS) annual NeuroFest. Hosted at the beachfront Hilton Santa Barbara November 12 – 15, you can register online.
- This hybrid event is targeted at physicians, respiratory therapists and chiropractors.
- It is an in-person conference on the beach, with COVID protocols in place. (In California, that means social distancing and masks indoors at the time of writing.)
- But we know the beachfront Hilton is an outstanding resort. Staying there is a real treat.
If you're busy on those dates, we know about other events. Perhaps you'd prefer something more academic or a chance to publish your work.
2. The International Conference on Recent Advances in Medical and Health Sciences (ICRAMHS) in LA
Hosted by the Academics World Organization (AWO), the Los Angeles ICRAMHS will be December 18 – 19, 2021. As above, we expect California COVID behaviors like social distancing and masks worn indoors.
Per the AWO website, this conference attracts leading academic scientists, researchers and research scholars who will exchange research results and experiences regarding the medical fields and health sciences.
- ICRAMHS is the premier interdisciplinary forum for practitioners, researchers and educators to present and discuss innovations and concerns in our field.
- At the time of writing, papers and speaker registrations are still welcome from around the globe.
If you're hoping to publish work, this is an outstanding venue. Post-conference proceedings will be published in the International Science Index and submitted to:
- Thomson Reuters
- EBSCO
- ERA
- Google Books and Google Scholar
- SCOPUS
- And ProQuest
A certificate of presentation will be distributed to the conference participants. At the time of writing, early bird registration is still available.
If the winter holiday season is the busiest time at your practice, you'd prefer an event in 2022. Let's turn our eyes to New York for a February event.
3. The Integrative Healthcare Symposium in NYC
Located at the New York Hilton Midtown in NYC, this multidisciplinary event attracts physicians, pharmacists, nurses, nutritionists, dentists and more.
Emedevents.com says more than 40 experts will speak from February 17 – 19, 2022. We're not sure what the New York mandates regarding COVID-19 will be, since this event is a few months away. But we know it will be a rich, rewarding experience for attendees. And the NY Hilton Midtown is a lovely, modern hotel with all the amenities you expect.
4. Society of Breast Imaging: #SBI ACR 2022 in Savannah, GA
Finally, the annual SBI ACR breast imaging symposium will occur May 16 – 19, 2022 in Savannah, so mark your calendars for that. Speaker details are still fuzzy at time of writing. But if you'd like to get involved, you can submit your abstract online.
