The SVS Foundation is now accepting abstract submissions for the 2015 Resident Research Prize.
The research must be an original, scientifically-sound, hypothesis-driven exploration. It is expected that the majority of the research will have been performed by the resident. Priority is given to studies which elucidate the pathophysiology of vascular disease or explore novel therapeutic possibilities based on mechanisms of disease.
The prize-winning work is presented at the Vascular Annual Meeting and is considered for publication in the Journal of Vascular Surgery.
