The theme of the conference, created by the program committee working under the leadership of AABP President-Elect Dr. Mark Hilton, is “Developing Practices of Excellence”. Gingrich provides information on the CE sessions and events that will take place at the conference. He also provides information on how to travel from the airport to the downtown hotel area, which is about 12 miles. Registration and conference sessions will be in the Minneapolis Convention Center. Committee meetings, clinical forum breakfast meetings, and preconference seminars will be in the Hilton Minneapolis downtown hotel. 

Make sure to download the YAPP app before arriving to view the conference schedule and session descriptions or you can find them online under the Continuing Education menu at this link. The city of Minneapolis has also created an attendee information webpage found here. This includes information about taking the light rail to the hotel area and a restaurant guide. 

Thank you to all our sponsors, volunteers and the AABP staff for your work in planning this conference.
