This year, we are excited to present an exceptional lineup of speakers and topics:
- Anne Mbiya, MD from Nakasero Hospital in Kampala, Uganda, will provide a comprehensive overview of geriatric anesthesia care, addressing the most pressing issues facing the field in Uganda.
- Mark D. Neuman, MD, MSc from the University of Pennsylvania will share the latest evidence-based practices for optimal anesthesia techniques in total joint replacement, emphasizing the increasing importance of a shared decision-making framework.
