Hey everyone,
I want to plug the upcoming SIR annual meeting being held this year in San Francisco. This will be the second year in a row where there is a dedicated medical student program in addition to the annual resident-in-training program. This years medical student program will take place on Sunday, March 25th. The program is detailed below but highlights include a dedicated IO symposium and a hands-on session where med students will learn about and actually use common tools of the trade (for example, youll get to cryo a cow liver!). The program will also feature multiple prominent IR speakers including a panel of current residents and program directors that will focus on answering medical students questions about IR. There will also be a keynote speech given by Dr. Dake, a practicing IR at Stanford who pioneered thoracic aortic endografts.
Like last year, this years SIR Medical Student Curriculum is completely free. To attend for free, please register at http://www.tfaforms.com/233198.
Please feel free to PM me with any questions and I look forward to seeing you all at SIR.
Sincerely,
