More than 300 clinicians and researchers came together at the Australian & New Zealand Burn Association Annual Scientific Meeting at Luna Park, on 13-16 September 2022. The event included a dinner celebrating people working in burn injury with the theme ‘Everyone is a Superhero’. The Burn Injury Network contributed to organising and hosting the event.
