Monday’s journey through the Annual Meeting's signature programming series brings another rich collection of specialized learning opportunities. The schedule for October 13 showcases the collaborative spirit that defines the specialty, from the interactive problem-solving of Ask the Experts sessions to the intimate, hands-on approach of our Problem-Based Learning (PBL) format. Whether you're seeking comprehensive credits through the CME ENThusiast Track's diverse topic lineup, engaging with the passionate discourse of Great Debates, or diving deep into clinical reasoning through small-group PBL sessions, today's programming demonstrates the many ways the Annual Meeting facilitates meaningful professional growth. Here's what is on the docket for Monday's series programming:
