Open to every doctor and every medical college, the AMA National conference will discuss how medicine can be shaped and improved out of the experience of changes in medical practice made necessary by the global pandemic. With CPD points for participation and the opportunity to help shape a change agenda, you are invited to re-engage with Australia’s medical profession by attending in person or by video over the three days at the end of July.
