Call for Research Reviewers

Help select content for AAPA 2025 conference by evaluating research conference proposals.


As a reviewer, you will review proposals based on the specialty tracks you select. Reading the research proposals, you will see content such as learning objectives, description of the session, a full 500-word abstract, etc. More importantly, using your expertise, you will assess the likely research quality, value to PAs and PA students, and importance of the work using a standardized rubric. Reviewers help us make informed decisions for the best content at AAPA 2025.


This volunteer opportunity allows you to provide input into the Research in Action, Research Rounds, and ePoster session selection process. From January 18 to February 3, 2025, you will receive a link to review your assigned proposals online. How many you receive depends upon the number of proposals we receive in the areas you are comfortable reviewing as well as the number you tell you are able to do. Most reviewers spend about two hours over the two-week period.


All of the online evaluations completed by the reviewers will then be summarized and provided to AAPA Research, to better inform final content decisions for the conference program.


The deadline to apply is January 5, 2025.
