Over the last several days, the AAMC has continued to actively monitor developments related to coronavirus, including engaging with both federal health officials and our member institutions. After much discussion with AAMC leadership, we have made the difficult but necessary decision to cancel both the Transforming Conflict into Collaboration Workshop and the Leadership and Management Foundations for Academic Medicine & Science Seminar.
The health and safety of our constituents and staff is our top priority. We made this difficult decision out of concern for the well-being of all who were scheduled to travel and attend this meeting, and because of our growing awareness that the leaders of our member institutions are increasingly needed at home.
This relates to this meeting only. Our decisions about future AAMC meetings will be based on daily assessments, and we will communicate to attendees of future AAMC meetings at least 10 days prior to the start date of their meeting if there is a cancellation.
This is an unprecedented national concern, and we thank you for your patience and understanding as we continue to carefully evaluate and work through this complex and rapidly changing situation. We thank you for your engagement with the AAMC and our learning offerings and hope you will join us at a future event.
At this time, we are not planning to reschedule these programs. If you were registered to attend this meeting you should have received a separate communication regarding the cancellation and your registration.
