Get Involved

Moderators are needed for AIHA Connect Research Roundup sessions. These sessions have two speakers presenting separate presentations. Moderators assist in making a smooth transition from one speaker to the next and support the speakers to stay on time. As a moderator, you will also be responsible for speaker introductions, session announcements, and assisting speakers as needed. Training is provided. Your name, photo, and bio will also be included in the session listing on the conference website.

Review these detailed Moderator Guidelines. You will receive additional instructions on the expectations of a session moderator at the Moderator Speaker Webinar on Tuesday, April 20, 2027.

Assignments are made on a first-come, first-served basis. AIHA reserves the right to cancel sessions. If a session is canceled, AIHA cannot guarantee an alternate moderating assignment. All moderators must be active AIHA members and must attend AIHA Connect in-person.

To volunteer as a moderator, complete the Research Roundup Moderator Form. Once processed, you will receive an email confirmation of your assignment and further instructions.

If you have questions, contact Diana Kane at 703-846-0753.

AIHA is seeking volunteers to judge student posters for the Best in Show awards. Judges will review digital student poster files online from April 26 through May 5, 2027 to select a first place (gold), second place (silver), and third place (bronze). Student winners will each receive a certificate and gift card. Winners will be determined prior to AIHA CONNECT, no later than May 6, 2027. Award winners will be featured in an issue of The Synergist after the conference.

AIHA’s technical committees will also judge student posters separately at their discretion in consideration for specific committee awards.

This is a short-term opportunity to give back to the profession. If you would like to serve as a judge for the Best in Show awards, email Diana Kane no later than April 23, 5:00 p.m. ET.
