Network and engage with Louisiana state legislators in a day of experiential learning about grassroots advocacy and how to get things done! Get an introduction to the advocacy process and take part in mock legislative meetings with staffers.

Medical students, are you ready for some competition? Get ready to put your ultrasound skills and team work to the test!
In this competition, five teams will embark on a journey of five simulated patient scenarios with live patient models. Each scenario will be based on a chief complaint and you will use ultrasound to solve the case. The winners will receive free AAEM/RSA and EUS-AAEM swag as an award.
Limited ultrasound skills? No problem EUS-AAEM has you covered! Registered teams will receive how-to ultrasound videos prior to the competition.
Do you think you can solve the case? Register your team today! There is no cost to participate.
We are seeking 12 adults to be model patients during 5 hands-on ultrasound workshops at AAEM23! The ultrasound models allow these live courses to provide hands-on ultrasound skill training for physicians to learn the basics, understand scan proficiency, and cover focused medical scans of vascular, abdominal, echocardiography (heart), and musculoskeletal (leg/arm) areas.
This opportunity is a rewarding benefit for college or medical students interested in the medical field (future physicians, medical assistants, nurses, physical therapists, and/or other medical specialties) to learn about the human body, earn easy extra cash, and network with physicians from throughout the globe.
