Commercial & Scientific Exhibits
The Exhibit Hall offers a variety of displays for your clinical, personal and business needs. The balanced combination of commercial as well as poster and scientific exhibits allows attendees to peruse the latest in surgical products and procedures. Take the time to talk with representatives from major medical suppliers and practice management consultants or stop to discuss an unusual case presentation with a colleague presenting a poster exhibit. Exhibitions will be open throughout the day and daily luncheons will be served in the exhibit hall for your convenience. View the full exhibit hall hours.

- Scientific Displays
The succinct formula of the poster exhibits will give you a step-by-step explanation of procedures, findings and results of multiple case studies, while allowing you to examine the information at your own pace. Poster presentations are selected via a rigorous abstract review process and will cover a variety of scientific topics. In addition to the regular scientific displays offered by the ASSH and ASHT, the 2009 Combined Meeting will also feature 20 new posters, specially selected by the International Relations Committee to be a part of the International Guest Hand Society collection.
