CAA 2025 Abstract Submission opens January 13, 2025

Dear CAA Members and Colleagues, 

The California Academy of Audiology Conference Committee is proud to invite clinicians, researchers, current Au.D. students, and academic professionals to submit an abstract for consideration for inclusion at the CAA 26th Annual Conference: Action & Impact being held September 18-20, 2025 in San Francisco, California. 

The 2025 Conference Committee is looking forward to putting together an exciting educational program to include research by our membership and the audiology community. The presentation formats include:

• General Session Platform Presentations: Innovative and engaging sessions that directly impact clinical audiology practice and practice management. 
• Student Research Forum: Geared toward Au.D. and Ph.D. students, the Student Research Forum provides selected students a 20- minute time slot during the General Session to present their research projects. The Student Research Forum is open to current CAA Student Members.
• Poster Presentations: The CAA Poster Session is an opportunity for both audiology professionals and students to share their research or interesting cases. The Poster Session will occur on September 18, 2025 and will be open to all registered attendees to view throughout the conference.

The 2025 Conference Committee looks forward to engaging with you and reviewing your submissions. If you have questions, please contact  confchair@caaud.org.

Best Regards,

Jo Powner, Au.D.
