Asia Pacific Medical Education Conference (APMEC)
Virtual Event, January 12–16, 2022
The text Asia Pacific Medical Education Conference (APMEC) will be held on January 12–16, 2022. The event will be hosted virtually by Universiti Malaya, together with the National University of Singapore and our local partners, the International Medical University, and the Academy of Medicine of Malaysia. As we continue to prepare for an irrevocably altered future, we look to our past for lessons and inspiration. Hence, the theme “Our Heritage, Our Future: Future proofing healthcare professionals – Trends. Issues. Priorities. Strategies” is fitting as we seek to adapt in response to these new challenges. Over five days, a variety of workshops and symposia, addressing teaching and learning, assessments, continuing medical education, and leadership, will provide a structured platform for engaging discussions with leading medical educationalists and other healthcare professionals from diverse cultures and backgrounds.

Lifting as We Rise—the 2022 ADEA Annual Session & Exhibition
March 19–22, 2022, Philadelphia, PA, USA
The 2022 conference of the American Dental Education Association, “Lifting as We Rise—the 2022 ADEA Annual Session & Exhibition,” inspires and challenges us to lean in on the pathways that position the next wave of oral health educators. Dental education is based upon a sequential process of learning, training, and developing as we move from students to providers, from residents to educators, from faculty to administrators. We focus on individual goals that propel us from one rung on the career ladder to the next. Join us on March 19–22, 2022, in historically rich and culturally diverse Philadelphia—Pennsylvania’s largest city—for Lifting as We Rise, a program designed to foster the growth and collegiality among dental educators. (The conference location has shifted from Montreal, Canada, because of ongoing travel and border restrictions related to the COVID-19 pandemic.) For more information, see https://www.adea.org/2022/.
