At CONMED, we believe that every voice matters—and sometimes, that voice is amplified on a global stage.

Melanie L., a dedicated member of our Clinical Affairs team, recently had the opportunity to speak at the 3Aware Symposium in Minneapolis. It was her first time presenting to a global audience, and she did so with confidence, backed by the support of her team and her senior writer, Rachel. “What an amazing time and ability to represent CONMED,” Melanie shared.

But Melanie’s impact doesn’t stop at the podium. Her team plays a vital role in collecting clinical evidence on our products, ensuring that we continue to deliver safe, effective solutions to healthcare providers and patients around the world.

As part of their credentialing efforts, Melanie and her team attend the annual AST conference. This year’s event in Orlando was especially meaningful—they had the chance to meet one of their Clinical Trial Surgeons in person. And in 2023, they were part of the grand opening of the Museum of Surgical Science in Chicago, a moment that blended history, innovation, and community.

Melanie’s team was also invited to the BioBrace RC launch, a recognition of their contributions to packaging and global product registration.

From clinical evidence to conference stages, Melanie’s story is a powerful reminder of how passion, preparation, and teamwork can elevate not just a career—but an entire company.
