Registration Now Open for the 2017 Annual Meeting

At the 2014 Annual Meeting, there was a large majority of votes to uncouple the Society of Academic Associations of Anesthesiology and Perioperative Medicine (SAAAPM) Annual Meeting from the AAMC Annual Meeting. This change has allowed SAAAPM continuity by using the same centrally located city (Chicago) and hotel. Your feedback is now being requested to determine future scheduling of the SAAAPM Annual Meetings for 2019 and beyond.

Perioperative Medicine and the future of anesthesiology is an important issue for the SAAA and its members. The name change for the Society was approved and the new identity will be "Society of Academic Associations of Anesthesiology and Perioperative Medicine (SAAAPM)”. Click to view more information.

The SAAAPM contributed $75,000 each to IARS and FAER to create partnerships to fund research on education topics. Read the full article for details of the research and recipients.
