The Academy sponsors an International Congress on an annual basis with the location rotating to various countries around the world.
The Congress always features the André Allard Memorial Lecture instituted to honour Dr. André Allard, the seventh President of the Academy 1971-1973. A biography of Dr. Allard and a full list of past Allard lecturers is available here.
The biennial Academy Congress (now held in ‘odd’ numbered years) is known as the International Congress of Aviation and Space Medicine (ICASM) and is usually held outside Europe. Information for Organisers of an ICASM is available here.
The Academy sponsors a Congress in alternate years in conjunction with the European Society of Aerospace Medicine (ESAM) and the Aerospace Medical Association (AsMA) alongside one or more local aerospace medicine organisations.

Individuals representing countries wishing to hold a Congress should e-mail the Secretary General of the Academy: secretary-general@iaasm.org.
