Submit Your Industry Poster Showcase Abstract for 2025 – Deadline is January 31, 2025

New for 2025, we are now accepting Industry Poster Showcase abstract submissions until January 31, 2025. This is an excellent opportunity to showcase innovative research and address critical issues within the orthopaedic field. This year, we are excited to host a special Poster Reception, where selected posters will be on physical display. Authors will have the opportunity to engage with attendees in a dynamic, interactive environment.

We welcome our industry colleagues to present data on key topics such as:

  • Healthcare Operations/Systems Science
  • Leadership in Orthopaedics
  • Women in Orthopaedic Leadership
  • Diversity, Equity, Inclusion (DEI) in Medicine
  • Professionalism in Orthopaedics
  • Biologics and Artificial Intelligence (AI)
  • Bone Health Management and Pre-operative Optimization
  • Robotics and New Techniques in Orthopaedic Education
  • Orthopaedic Innovations
  • Socioeconomic Issues and Healthcare Disparities in Orthopaedics

Submissions should align with the AOA’s focus on non-clinical, critical issues and educational topics that are shaping the future of the profession. Clinical poster submissions should relate only to orthopaedic leadership in the bone health management and pre-operative optimization of fragility fracture, spine, and total joint patients.  All other clinical poster submissions will not be accepted.

Please note that industry abstracts are non-CME and may include references to trade names and company names.

We look forward to your submissions and are committed to making the 2025 AOA Annual Leadership Meeting a valuable and enriching experience for all participants. Don’t miss out on this unique opportunity to showcase your company’s contributions to the AOA audience!
