Within each track are a few specially curated session topics. These topics were created by the Medtrade Educational Advisory Board (EAB) to be used as both a guide and direction for your submissions. We invite you to submit your proposals on the topics outlined within each track, as well as any other topics you believe would be relevant and valuable to the Medtrade audience. We seek presentations that are informative, engaging, and practical. Please note, the EAB is looking for at least two advanced learning sessions per track.
