2021 Ultimate Autonomic Challenge
The American Autonomic Society is calling for your participation in the 2021 Ultimate Autonomic Challenge. The fourth UAC will take place during the American Autonomic Society virtual meeting. A faculty expert panel will host a live discussion of four challenging clinical cases. The clinical cases should address complex autonomic medicine disorder diagnosis and management dilemmas. The presenters will use an internet-based Audience Response System (ARS) to engage and interact with the audience in real-time.

Please submit your case to be considered for review and presentation during the 2021 American Autonomic Society Meeting. Please send a case summary (up to 800 words) including title, presenter, and institution. In addition, please answer these 4 questions separate from the case summary. 

  1. Is this a diagnosis challenge (Y/N)?
  2. Is this a therapeutic challenge (Y/N)?
  3. What makes this case unique?
  4. What is the final diagnosis (if known). Please DO NOT include the diagnosis in the case summary.

Please send the case summary and other requested information via email directly to Amber Millen, AAS Executive Director, at amber@americanautonomicsociety.org.
