Conference Recap

2023 MONA Conference

Over 400 people gathered in-person and virtually at the 2023 Marce of North America Conference. What an extraordinary event it was! From October 25th to October 28th, physicians, researchers, and advocates from across the continent gathered together to share knowledge, foster collaboration, and promote positive change.

The conference kicked off with a day of pre-conference workshops. Attendees participated in interactive discussions, attending sessions such as Getting Your Grant Off on the Right Foot and How to Teach Reproductive Psychiatry. The main conference delved into the diverse array of issues encompassed by the Marce of North America community. Our keynote and abstract presenters covered a wide range of topics, including gender equality, racial justice, healthcare access, the effects of Covid-19 on infants born during the pandemic.

Other highlights include the poster reception, riverboat cruise on the Potomac River, and the awards ceremony where the very first MONA Pioneer Award was given to Katherine L. Wisner, MD.
