About AMI President's Message
A Message from the AMI President Welcome to the website of the Association of Medical Illustrators It is my pleasure to represent the creative and dedicated members of the AMI. We are a diverse, interdisciplinary group brought together by our fascination with science, art, media, and communication. Our dynamic profession is continually evolving and expanding, ensuring exciting career opportunities. Our annual 2011 conference will be held from July 20th to 23rd in Baltimore, Maryland where we will celebrate the 100th anniversary of our profession! To view how we have evolved as a profession, I recommend that you visit the link on this web site (Medical Illustration > History of Medical Illustration). Here you will view the work created by the pioneers of our profession (Gallery > Historical Art) and contrast their work with the diverse illustrations of today’s salon winners (Gallery > 2009 / 2010 Salon Winners & Past Salon Winners). These images remind us of our rich heritage and demonstrate how we have evolved as a profession. If you are a member of the AMI, the Online Members Community (OMC) offers an incredible opportunity for members to stay connected. Active dialogue keeps us up-to-date regarding emerging fields and employment opportunities. Please contact me with questions that you may have regarding the AMI. I always enjoy discussing the future of our exciting profession. Best regards and thank you for navigating our website.
