REFLECTIONS ON THE MOVERS SYMPOSIUM: A LIVING HISTORY OF CONTEMPORARY ORTHODONTICS AND CRANIOFACIAL BIOLOGY

摘要

The Moyers Symposium series began in 1974 as a way to honor Robert E. Moyers, Professor of Dentistry and Founding Director of the Center for Human Growth and Development on the Ann Arbor campus of The University of Michigan. This annual meeting has become recognized as the most prestigious meeting of its kind worldwide, drawing an international group of people chosen annually for their expertise in the specific topic being discussed. Themes were identified carefully to reflect contemporary issues or controversies facing the specialty at a particular time. There have been more than 320 formal presentations during the 40 years, each of which was followed by stimulating discussions either after each talk or included in panel discussions.
