"If someday rockets should open the gates to space, then we must be oriented as to its environmental conditions and their possible biological effects. To study this, and to find means of protection, is one of the tasks of space medicine." Hubertus Strughold, Space Medicine, 1951

The Association's annual scientific meeting provides a multi-faceted forum for all aerospace medical disciplines and concurrently provides continuing education credits for those attending the meeting. Lectures, seminars, panels, poster presentations, workshops, film reports, and technical and scientific exhibits present data on the latest results of clinical and research studies. No other meeting brings together such a diverse group of specialists - clinical health care directors, physicians, scientists, and nurses from the armed services, civil and military aviation, academia, and industry, plus the many private practitioners in all clinical specialties - who care for the total civilian flying population on a daily basis. International representation is evident among both program participants and attendees.

The 81th Annual Scientific Meeting of the Aerospace Medical Association will be held May 8-13, 2010, in Phoenix, Arizona.
 
Future Annual Scientific Meetings:

• Anchorage, Alaska - May 8-12, 2011
• Atlanta, Georgia - May 13-17, 2012
