KAMA is a Community
The 51st KAMA Scientific Convention brings together leading voices in Korean American medicine for an extraordinary gathering of knowledge, innovation, and professional growth. Over three days in Boston, attendees will explore cutting-edge research, engage in thought-provoking discussions, and forge connections that shape the future of healthcare.
Whether you are a seasoned physician, a medical researcher pushing the boundaries of discovery, a resident navigating your career path, or a student preparing for the journey ahead, this convention offers something uniquely valuable for every stage of your professional life.
From learning alongside leaders across every medical specialty to strengthening the bonds of a vibrant professional community, the 51st KAMA Scientific Convention is more than a medical meeting - it is where Korean American medicine comes together.
Five Decades of Excellence
Since its founding in 1974, the Korean American Medical Association has served as the premier professional organization for Korean American physicians and medical professionals across the United States. With a membership spanning every major specialty, KAMA stands as a pillar of excellence, advocacy, and community in American medicine.
Our mission is to advance the professional development and well-being of Korean American medical practitioners while promoting the health of Korean Americans and the broader community. Through education, mentorship, and collaborative research, we bridge cultures and elevate care.
From providing scholarships to the next generation of physicians to advocating for health equity at the national level, KAMA continues to make a meaningful impact both within and beyond our community. The annual Scientific Convention is the cornerstone of that mission - and the 51st gathering promises to be our most inspiring yet.
