2025 AsMA-UHMS Annual Scientific Meeting

The 2025 AsMA-UHMS Annual Scientific Meeting will be held in Atlanta, GA, USA. The theme for this year’s Annual Scientific Meeting is “Innovation: Journey to the Future.” With emerging technology and new entrants into the aviation and space environment, it is now more important than ever to encourage the next generation of young people to consider entering career fields like aerospace medicine, engineering, aviation, maintenance, air traffic control, and remotely piloted vehicle operations, to name a few. To quote a staff member, “if a young person can’t see it, they can’t be it.” Many of our youth have no awareness of the career opportunities in aerospace medicine. We need to be out in our schools and youth organizations telling our story. In addition, AsMA members will need to maintain a full awareness, and in many cases, a working knowledge of the innovations so we can better respond to needs of the aviation and space communities. The future will require us to think differently as the airspace system changes.

As aerospace medicine is truly multi-disciplinary and international, our presentations come from diverse experts who will enhance the world’s knowledge and understanding of the current challenges in Aerospace Medicine and demonstrate an impact on improving the health, safety, and human performance of those involved in aviation, space, and extreme environments. Our annual scientific meeting presents an opportunity to learn about the work of our colleagues from around the world, to share the knowledge and wisdom which we gain in our day-to-day work and professional practice and is a great way to expand the overall community of aerospace medicine.
