The AAOS 2025 Annual Meeting will be held March 10 to 14, 2025 (Monday through Friday), at the San Diego Convention Center in San Diego, and you are invited to join the Academy in planning ahead for another must-see educational experience.
The AAOS Annual Meeting Committee is already beginning to focus on building the most current and compelling educational program possible for San Diego in 2025. This is where you come in.
If you have knowledge or research to share, you are encouraged to participate in the AAOS 2025 Annual Meeting call for abstracts, which opened on April 1. Visit aaos.org/abstracts to learn more.
The AAOS Annual Meeting has a well-earned reputation as being the largest, most comprehensive orthopaedic educational event of the year. Each year, thousands of experts from around the globe choose AAOS as the best forum to disseminate their knowledge and research.
“When an attendee is there at one of our meetings, and you can see them shaking their head in the audience from some points that are made from the podium, you feel a great connection,” said AAOS Annual Meeting Committee Chair Matthew T. Provencher, MD, MBA, CAPT MC USNR (Ret.), FAAOS. “Taking something that I have learned and then being able to pass that on so together we can improve our craft of orthopaedics—that’s what it’s all about.”
The 5-day AAOS Annual Meeting offers attendees programming across four distinct learning styles, meaning you also have a wide variety of options when considering what and how to showcase your knowledge and research. Whether presenting from the podium during an Instructional Course Lecture (ICL), displaying a poster in OrthoLive, having your surgical videos on display in OrthoDome® or the Orthopaedic Video Theater (OVT), or selecting from one of the many other format options available, each presenter at the AAOS Annual Meeting experiences an unparalleled opportunity to disseminate their work to the entire field. Nowhere else will your discoveries reach such a wide-ranging orthopaedic audience.
