The student, postdoc and medical resident chapter of the Association for Research in Otolaryngology (ARO) is an inclusive group for any trainee participating in ARO-related activities. Our goal is to help trainees learn the ropes of a professional career in speech and hearing-related sciences.

spARO is run by a five-member Steering Committee, elected annually at the ARO MidWinter Meeting.  One, ex-officio, member of the Steering Committee serves a second year, and acts as a non-voting representative on the ARO Council.  In addition, spARO provides representatives to each  ARO Committee that meets at the MidWinter Meeting.  Given current levels of demand, these positions are typically filled by volunteers, although they will be moved to an election system if they become more competitive.

Upcoming Events:

40th Annual MidWinter Meeting, Saturday, Feb 11th:

 spARO Townhall: Baltimore Marriott Waterfront Hotel, 5-6 PM

spARO Social: Heavy Seas Alehouse, 1300 Bank St, 8:30 PM
