On behalf of the entire organising committee I would like to welcome you to our Annual Scientific Meeting (ASM) themed Changing the Focus from Oct 13-15, 2021.

The ANZBA board and local organising committees have met and have made the decision to move our ASM away from the Westin and to an on-line virtual meeting (with a smaller face-to-face option elsewhere in Perth for our WA delegates, and other delegates that do feel able to travel to Perth).

In 2019 we posed the question ‘What’s your vision for burncare in 2020?’  So much has happened since then….we have witnessed the unfolding of a global pandemic, millions of people have lost their lives to Coronavirus, and we have all experienced enormous changes to our lives.  Moreover, there have been enormous challenges and changes across healthcare during this time – including our own specialty of Burns.

Changing the Focus will allow us to reflect, present and discuss clinical burn care, burns research, education, and prevention in these changing times.

I personally look forward to welcoming you virtually (and face to face) to our meeting in October.

ANZBA President and ASM Convenor
