With a record number of abstracts submitted this year to the 2018 Annual Meeting, we're going to have a great program of proffered talks, ePosters, and regular posters to complement our exciting program of invited talks. I want to thank everyone who submitted an abstract, and give a special thanks to all the volunteers who gave their time to review those abstracts. The Annual Meeting works because of these efforts by our members.

To all of you who have commented over the past several years about the size of the printed program, we heard you. This year, in order to save both trees and backs, we will not physically print the abstracts for any of the presentations. The meeting program itself will be printed as always in the June issue of Medical Physics, and a copy will also be provided to you upon registration in Nashville. All abstracts will be available electronically through the Medical Physics website, the meeting website, and the Annual Meeting mobile app. Please let us know what you think about this change.

The Meeting Program goes live on May 8. Be sure to check it out! Remember that this year we are implementing assigning one category and up to three keywords to each presentation to help you navigate through the program and find those talks that are of special interest to you. No more missing out on a talk because you weren't aware of it.

Looking forward to seeing you in Nashville!
