About Hungarian Medical Association of America

The Hungarian Medical Association of America (HMAA) is a national professional organization dedicated to advancing medical science and fostering excellence in clinical practice and research. Based in Amherst, NY, the HMAA serves physicians and scientists of Hungarian heritage across North America through its comprehensive educational and professional development programs. The organization promotes the dissemination of knowledge in clinical medicine and basic medical sciences through annual scientific meetings, lectures, discussions, and publications that provide continuing medical education credits recognized by the American Medical Association. Members benefit from a multidisciplinary scientific symposium held each October that features renowned lecturers presenting recent advances, theories, and discoveries in medicine. The HMAA facilitates professional networking and collaboration among members, creating opportunities to exchange ideas and participate in continuing medical education within a community of peers who share Hungarian medical traditions. Beyond educational programming, the organization actively supports the advancement of medical professionals through scholarships and exchange programs for qualified candidates from North America and Hungary. The HMAA also serves as a vital liaison between North American and Hungarian medical societies, universities, and institutions, encouraging professional interactions and scientific exchange at both individual and organizational levels. With a heritage rooted in the achievements of pioneering physicians including Ignác Semmelweis and Nobel laureate Albert Szent-Györgyi, the HMAA continues to uphold standards of scientific excellence while building bridges between the American and Hungarian medical communities.
