Advancing Science
FROM THE EAST PRESIDENT
A. Britton Christmas, MD, FACS
I will refer to the mission of this great organization as the foundation for this
message: “EAST is a scientific organization providing leadership and development
for young surgeons active in the care of the injured patient through interdisciplinary
collaboration, scholarship, and fellowship.” Truly one of the greatest attributes of
EAST is the fellowship among our members and the welcoming atmosphere for all
those who desire to become involved. The comradery and support that we provide
one another is one of our greatest strengths. We strive to make one another better…
we seek to mentor and develop young leaders who will continue to grow this great
discipline.
While we will not be able to meet in person for the 34th Annual Scientific Assembly,
by gathering virtually for the 34th EAST Annual Scientific Assembly, we will continue
our mission of promoting leadership development, collaboration, and scholarship.
It is that simple, yet so powerful final word in our mission statement that sets EAST
apart as a truly great and enduring organization…”fellowship.” For many, EAST
symbolizes a home to which we can always return knowing that our brothers, sisters,
and friends will be there to support us. EAST is more than an organization; it is a
family and for that I am truly grateful.
Thank you for joining me in Advancing Science, Fostering Relationships and
Building Careers.
A. Britton Christmas, MD, FACS EAST President

CODE OF CONDUCT FOR EAST MEETINGS
1. Introduction. The Eastern Association for the Surgery of Trauma
(“EAST”) is a nonprofit corporation, organized for charitable, educational, and scientific purposes. In particular, EAST: (i) fosters advances in the study and practice of the surgery of trauma; (ii) provides a forum for the exchange of knowledge pertaining to injury control, research, practice, and training in prevention, care, and rehabilitation of injury; and (iii) advances research, education, and training regarding the prevention, correction, and treatment of injuries (“Exempt Purpose”). In furtherance of its Exempt Purpose, EAST conducts and/or sponsors educational meetings including, without limitation, Annual Scientific Assemblies and periodic internal and external meetings and programs (collectively “Meeting(s)”). EAST seeks participation in its Meetings by individuals with varied and diverse backgrounds. EAST is committed to providing a friendly, safe, and welcoming environment for all Meeting attendees, regardless of gender, sexual orientation, ability, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, religion (or lack thereof), and other individual characteristics. This Code of Conduct (“Code”) outlines EAST’s expectations of its Meeting attendees (including EAST members, EAST Board members, sponsors, invited guests, and any other person attending a Meeting), as well as the consequences for Unacceptable Behavior (defined below). We expect all Meeting attendees will abide by this Code at all Meetings, and in connection with activities outside of Meetings when such behavior has the potential to adversely affect the safety and/or wellbeing of Meeting attendees.
2. Expected Behavior. EAST expects its Meeting attendees will:
• Exercise consideration and respect in their speech and actions.
• Attempt collaboration before conflict.
• Refrain from demeaning, discriminatory, or harassing behavior and speech.
• Be mindful of their surroundings and fellow attendees. • Be respectful to all patrons at Meeting venues.
3. Unacceptable Behavior. “Unacceptable Behavior” EAST will not

• Intoxication, contributing to inappropriate behavior. • Deliberate intimidation, stalking or following (online or in

• Sustained disruption during Meeting events, including talks and presentations.
• Advocating for, or encouraging, any of the above behavior. • Any other conduct deemed inappropriate and/or that may
jeopardize the success of a Meeting, EAST’s reputation and goodwill, or the positive experience of any other Meeting attendee.
4. Consequences of Unacceptable Behavior. Unacceptable
Behavior by Meeting attendees will not be tolerated. The determination of whether conduct constitutes Unacceptable Behavior, and the consequences imposed by EAST for the same, rest solely within EAST’s discretion, and said determinations are final and not subject to appeal. Anyone asked to stop Unacceptable Behavior is expected to comply immediately. If a Meeting attendee engages in Unacceptable Behavior and/or does not comply with this Code, EAST may take any action deemed appropriate, up to and including a temporary ban or permanent expulsion from a Meeting without warning (and without refund, in the case of a paid event).
5. Reporting Guidelines. If you are subject to, or witness,
Unacceptable Behavior, or have any other concerns, please notify EAST as soon as possible by contacting EAST’s Executive Director or EAST’s Executive Committee. If the subject Unacceptable Behavior involves the Executive Director, please notify EAST’s current President. Additionally, Meeting organizers are available to help Meeting attendees engage local law enforcement, or to, otherwise, help those experiencing Unacceptable Behavior feel safe. During Meetings, organizers are available to provide escorts as desired to the Meeting attendee(s) experiencing distress.
