Abstract:
The American Academy of Medical Acupuncture’s 24th Annual Symposium for Medical Acupuncture was held in Atlanta, Georgia, USA on April 27-29, 2012. The American Academy of Medical Acupuncture (AAMA) is an academic society made up mostly of doctors who are interested in acupuncture. This symposium had 11 lectures, 8workshops, 6oral presentations and 7 poster sessions. The contents of almost all presentations concerned acupuncture. There were 300 participants in the symposium. 20 companies took part in the exhibitions at this symposium, and the Japan Society of Acupuncture and Moxibustion (JSAM) was introduced with a large vertical banner in its exhibition booth, and leaflets from JSAM were distributed. I attended the symposium as a representative of the Department of International Affairs in JSAM.
