ADINST4FP 10/11B INVITATION ANNUAL Dear Colleagues, SESSION Have you ever read through an issue of the Journal of Endodontia from 1946-1948? These volumes outline the beginnings of our specialty and serve as part of our historical record (view them at www.aae.org/history). There is a classic saying by author Anthony Burgess: “It’s always good to PLANNING remember where you come from and celebrate it. To remember where you come from is part of where you’re going.” This holds very true in endodontics, as the issues facing the specialty in COMMITTEE 1947 are remarkably similar to those we encounter today. The June 1947 issue of the JOE promotes a program dedicated to endodontic education to be held in August at the Sheraton Hotel in Boston, Mass. The September issue describes the actual meeting, where Dr. Louis I. Grossman presented a manuscript titled What Should a Lecture Program Chair Course in Endodontia Include? The article was then critiqued by Dr. George Hare, who W. Craig Noblett, D.D.S., M.S. commends Dr. Grossman for including visual aids and motion pictures in his lecture format. Berkeley, Calif. He noted, “If duplicates of these films could be purchased or made available to other teachers, they would be welcomed adjuncts in the teaching of endodontia in all dental schools.” Sixty-five years later, we will convene once again in Boston for a program dedicated to Program Vice Chair endodontic education—the 2012 Annual Session centered on the theme History & Mark A. Schachman, D.M.D. Heritage—Forging the Future. As in 1947, the format will include educational sessions Florham Park, N.J. enhanced by visual aids and video, as well as live demonstrations and hands-on workshops. But we won’t be limited to learning from and referencing these materials just at the meeting as our forbearers were; they will be made available online via a new mobile app (see page 6 Immediate Past General Chair for details) and through our Live Learning Center shortly following the meeting! Sandra Madison, D.D.S., M.S. The Annual Session Planning Committee has developed a varied educational program, Asheville, N.C. including three new educational tracks that are a significant part of the 2012 program. Sessions in the Evidence-Based Endodontics, Exploring the Future, and Orofacial Pain, Oral Pathology and Trauma tracks cover timely topics. Five other educational tracks help to round out an educational program full of sessions of interest to endodontists, educators, Professional Staff Chair residents and professional staff members. George T. Goodis, D.D.S. The Annual Session is not only a priceless learning experience, but provides an opportunity Grosse Pointe, Mich. to explore one of America’s first cities. Boston is rich in historical sites and iconic pastimes, so attendees can expect an experience seeped in Americana. Some of the special events will leverage the significance of this location in a special way; with presidential historian Doris Professional Staff Representative Kearns Goodwin as the General Session keynote speaker; Pitch Slapped, a nationally Lynda L. Davenport, RDA prominent a capella group from the renowned Berklee College of Music singing at the Nashville, Tenn.
