Behind the scenes at USANZ ASM 2023

It was great to see so many Members at the USANZ ASM in Melbourne recently. Our team has been working hard to produce this event just months after the UAA Congress that was held in Sydney last October. As last year's ASM was held in June 2022, USANZ has produced three large scale events within the span of nine months. This is a tremendous achievement and I am proud of the entire USANZ team for their hard work and dedication during such a busy period. It was certainly rewarding to see that the event was a success and enjoyed by so many delegates.

I want to thank the USANZ Conference Manager Anna Tartakovskaia for doing a fantastic job of coordinating this conference and ensuring its successful delivery. I have seen the hours of work that went into producing the ASM and I am grateful for her ongoing contributions. Thank you also to Jonathon Street, Communications Manager, and Samantha Roberts, Communications Coordinator, for developing the event communications and running the social media campaign. I am grateful to the entire USANZ team for their collective efforts, as well as DC Conference Association and Specialists, and the organising and scientific committee.
