AMWA Region 5 Conference Announcement

​Dear SJB students and faculty,

You're invited to attend the Region 5 American Medical Women’s Association (AMWA) Conference at the Luis Muñoz Marín Foundation in San Juan, Puerto Rico. Region 5 includes those medical schools with AMWA chapters in Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi, Tennessee, Puerto Rico, and abroad. 

The conference, which will take place on February 7-8, 2020, will be a great opportunity to build bridges and develop connections among members of these different chapters. There will be multiple speakers, including two female general surgeons from the University of Alabama at Birmingham. In addition, there will be an opportunity to present your research poster. This is a fantastic way to showcase any work you would like to present and will look great on your resume! Abstracts are due February 1, 2020.
