Get the Latest in Scientific Research
Researchers from around the world will bring their findings to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
The latest research and advances in otolaryngology-head and neck surgery will be front and center at this year’s Annual Meeting as nearly 1,000 Scientific Posters presenters and Scientific Oral presenters will share their findings.
Daniel C. Chelius, Jr., MD, AAO-HNSF Annual Meeting Program Coordinator, said the meeting will also feature 80 late-breaking abstracts with the most up-to-date breakthroughs. Those numbers, Dr. Chelius said, represent the culmination of an ongoing trend as more researchers look to share their work with their peers at the Annual Meeting.
“There is such an appetite to share our work with colleagues and to get feedback,” he said. “Presenting a Poster is a wonderful mentorship opportunity for medical students and residents, and often facilitates their ability to attend the Annual Meeting. As we come out of the most isolating parts of the pandemic, I think this signals our market desire to return to our community.”
More than 150 late-breaking scientific submissions have been narrowed down to 40 Oral Presentations that will be featured in four late-breaking scientific sessions and 60 posters joining more than 500 others in the Poster Hall at the OTO Experience. In addition to the posters and abstracts, the Annual Meeting Program Advisory Committee chose 19 Scientific Oral Presentations out of hundreds submitted as the “Best of Orals.” Dr. Chelius said narrowing down the choices this year was not an easy task.
“It was terribly difficult for our program committee to select the oral presentations because the quality of submissions was so high,” he said. “I don’t envy the job our journal editors will have when it comes to selecting among the accepted presentations for publication.”
