Background:

The Military Health System Research Symposium (MHSRS) Conference is the largest military medical conference of the year and will be held from August 14-17 in Kissimmee, FL. Last year’s conference was marked by record turnout of ~4,000 attendees. The conference provides a phenomenal opportunity for networking, developing relationships with program managers, clinicians, researchers, academia, and industry, gaining insights on priorities of the DoD, understanding where your capabilities align with those priorities, and meeting with leadership from Defense Health Agency, Futures Command, USAMRDC, WRAIR, USAISR, and the VA. This webinar will provide helpful insight and preparation for navigating the Military Health System, even if you are not attending MHSRS.
