Hot Topics
The Hot Topic sessions is one of the most popular components of SAHM annual meetings. There are two sessions, each consisting of four fifteen minute presentations on today's hottest topics in adolescent health.
Workshops are 90-minute sessions, often with multiple presenters. They are a mix of educational formats: lecture, case-based presentation, panel discussion, small group work, or interactive activities.
Institutes at the SAHM annual meeting are three-hour sessions (with a 30-minute break), typically with multiple presenters.

They are intended for hands-on training, though they may also employ a variety of other educational formats: lecture, case-based presentation, panel discussion, or small group work.
SAHM Special Interest Groups (SIGs) provide a forum for members with common interests to network and explore specific topic areas in clinical care, research and public health, as well as to enable the exchange of ideas and the development of collaborative clinical or research projects.
