Department of Anesthesiology and Critical Care Medicine Biennial Meeting
Every two years, the Johns Hopkins Medical and Surgical Association welcomes alumni, faculty, house staff, fellows, and students back to Baltimore for its Biennial Meeting. The Biennial is comprised of a wide variety of presentations, lectures, seminars, tours, meals, and special events. Coordinated in conjunction with all of the academic departments of Johns Hopkins Medicine, this program is designed for the exchange of information and views concerning current developments in medical and surgical techniques and research, and it offers an opportunity for certified CME credits. The Biennial Meeting also offers time for social exchanges among members, within departments, and with current students.
In conjunction with the Biennial, the School of Medicine sponsors reunion events for more than 20 returning classes of M.D. graduates. Reunions are the perfect time to renew friendships, catch a glimpse of the ever-changing landscape of the East Baltimore campus and reminisce about former professors, classmates, and experiences.
