multidisciplinary educational review of major advances in trauma research, emergency response, reconstructive surgery, injury prevention, and recovery following severe traumatic injuries.\r\n\r\nOrganized by the \u003cstrong\u003eGillian Reny Stepping Strong Center for Trauma Innovation at Brigham and Women's Hospital\u003c\/strong\u003e, in collaboration with \u003cstrong\u003eMass General Brigham\u003c\/strong\u003e, this annual symposium brings together trauma surgeons, emergency physicians, reconstructive specialists, biomedical researchers, rehabilitation physicians, and leaders in emergency preparedness.\r\n\r\nHeld on November 16, 2023, at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston, Massachusetts, with virtual participation, the sixth annual symposium explored how trauma care had evolved during the decade following the 2013 Boston Marathon bombing.\r\n\r\nThe official theme, \u003cstrong\u003eTen Years Later: Advancements in Trauma Care After the Boston Marathon Bombing\u003c\/strong\u003e, highlights the important contributions of medical innovation, clinical research, emergency preparedness, multidisciplinary coordination, and community collaboration to improving the care of injured patients.\r\n\r\nThe program features presentations from Stepping Strong-funded researchers, a multidisciplinary clinical panel examining changes in trauma care, and a keynote discussion focused on emergency preparedness and coordinated responses to mass-casualty incidents.\r\n\r\nThe symposium also recognizes research initiatives designed to translate scientific discoveries into practical solutions for trauma survivors.\r\n\r\nIts educational focus connects injury prevention, prehospital emergency response, acute trauma management, surgical reconstruction, rehabilitation, and long-term functional recovery.\r\n\u003ch2\u003eCourse Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n\u003cul data-spread=\"false\"\u003e\r\n
