Time well spent starts here. At ACOI 2026, you'll remember why the best conversations are the ones that start between sessions—in the hallways and during downtime, when something you share with a colleague sparks an idea that improves your entire next year, or you get the chance to reconnect with your friends from residency.

Whether you’re forming new connections, or rejuvenating longtime relationships, what happens in-person at this event can't be replicated.

Join us in Palm Springs this October for ACOI 2026! It's an opportunity unlike any other, and now is the perfect time to register! https://www.acoi.org/acoi2026/registration
