Join us for a guide to navigating the process for submitting medical education content to AAMC’s Annual Meeting: Learn Serve Lead (LSL).

This session will contrast the various LSL medical education submission types to help you choose the best fit for your work. Members of the AAMC Medical Education Program Planning Committee will share common pitfalls and quality issues that often lead to rejection and show you how to avoid them.

Additionally, we’ll offer practical, evidence-based strategies to strengthen your abstract and make it more competitive in today’s rigorous review environment. Whether you're a first-time submitter or a returning author aiming for higher impact, this webinar will help you craft a more compelling and review-ready submission.
