The participants shared their experiences and insights on how age can impact involvement and leadership opportunities within the Academy of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (AAPM&R). Dr. John Melvin highlighted the need for young physicians to network and be proactive in seeking leadership roles. He also emphasized the importance of mentorship and recommended finding mentors who collaborate and support the mentee's growth. Dr. Heidi Chen, as a current resident, expressed initially feeling imposter syndrome but ultimately finding support and opportunities for engagement. She encouraged others to take the leap and get involved, regardless of age or experience. Dr. Anand Malani shared his experience as a delegate to the AMA and the support he received in participating in leadership roles at an early stage in his career.

The panel emphasized the importance of inclusivity, avoiding stereotypes, and creating age-equitable teams. Overall, the discussion highlighted the value of involving and engaging members across all age groups to foster diversity and innovation.
