Summary: A conference brings together minds from every corner of the country. It's a chance for big names to inspire young minds, and for unexpected connections to be made.

"Utilizing Cultured Cells to Effectively Boost Cartilage Synthesis."

Two hands held open a well-worn copy of 'The American College of Surgeons Advancing Medicine Congress' schedule. Two days of none stop medical talks and workshops had brought hundreds of fellow surgeons, researchers, and physicians under one roof. There in that hotel was a collection of minds that changed medicine as history knew it, all gathered to exchange ideas and dreams. Two days of teachers speaking to students, passing on that eternal thirst for knowledge.

And two days of sitting in uncomfortable chairs.

"Pass," a gruff resident answered.

"Why?" asked Arizona. Her gaze darted between her two fellow residents whom she'd traveled to the conference with.

"Because we've already been to three lectures today," Cynthia replied. She tugged at the leather briefcase strap that was digging into her shoulder.

"But it's supposed to be good. C'mon, this is the Dr. Callie Torres we are talking about!"

"Who?" asked Bryan.

"Callie Torres... You do know who Callie Torres is, right? Please tell me you do." Arizona's eyes widened in shock. "Callie Torres." She said again, as if her repetition would jog her counterpart's memory. "Her advancements in orthopedic surgery have put her on the short list for the Harper Avery twice. Not once. Twice."
