Conference Overview

The Tennessee State Pediatric Conference (TPSC) is the annual meeting of the Tennessee Chapter of the American Academy of Pediatrics (TNAAP). This meeting has two emphases. First, the conference will focus on a topic area about which clinicians have requested more training.  This year the TPSC will provide evidence-based and clinically relevant training on topics in ADOLESCENT MEDICINE.  Our faculty members are leading, local physicians who teach in an atmosphere that encourages participant interaction. Second, the TPSC is a gathering of state pediatric leaders.  The conference is an important place of fellowship where friendship and professional camaraderie will grow.  This meeting will educate, encourage and empower your practice of pediatric medicine.
