Abstract
AMIA has been the home for informatics professionals for 22 years, and has undergone a remarkable evolution during that time. Its autumn meeting continues to be a vibrant setting for the best in informatics science and practice, building on a tradition that started with SCAMC (the Symposium on Computer Applications in Medical Care) in 1977. Its journal, created in the early 1990s, is now arguably the preeminent journal in our discipline, combining cutting-edge science with important insights from the practice community. I have been honored to serve as AMIA's President during the past 3 of those 22 years and would like to take a moment to reflect on our recent accomplishments while acknowledging our ongoing challenges and exciting opportunities for the future. Among our recent accomplishments:
