Program
The 61st PAH Health Symposium program will showcase a variety of topics and explore how health services are working with patients, providers, systems and staff to build a sustainable and progressive health system underpinned by a culture of collaborative research, innovative service models and technology.
As the flagship educational and research event for PAH and MSH, the symposium promises to deliver a content-rich program featuring:
- expert clinicians and researchers presenting leading advances in speciality areas
- ‘hot topic’ panel discussions, and
- the popular Research Excellence Awards recognising next generation discoveries to influence the clinical space.
This year’s program is being held live in the Translational Research Institute Auditorium with online options for those off campus.
