On behalf of the California Society of Anesthesiologists (CSA) Education Programs Division, I am pleased to invite you to the CSA Winter 2026 Anesthesia Conference on Maui, January 19–23, 2026, at the Grand Wailea.

CSA's mission is to foster innovation and professional collaboration through education. This meeting emphasizes the growing complexity of our patients, interdisciplinary learning, and collaborative, high-quality care. The agenda equips attendees with practical tools for today while exploring how anesthesia practice will evolve.

Our outstanding faculty will present on perioperative management of complex pain, delirium and postoperative cognitive dysfunction, and key obstetric anesthesia topics, including preeclampsia, epidural labor analgesia, and postpartum hemorrhage. Interactive Problem-Based Learning Discussions (PBLDs) will provide case-based insights to support real-world decision-making.

Morning sessions allow afternoons to enjoy Maui and the exceptional amenities of the Grand Wailea, including pristine beaches, ocean activities, championship golf, and fine dining. The island offers unparalleled opportunities for snorkeling, whale watching, hiking, and exploring its remarkable natural beauty.

We hope you will join us for an outstanding educational experience—enhanced by the natural beauty, warmth, and spirit of Hawaii.

Sincerely,
David Copenhaver, MD, MPH
Program Chair
