Do you have an interesting case to share?
SVM is looking for challenging cases to be presented during Cases Over Cocktails at the 2015 SVM Annual Scientific Sessions.
A panel of SVM Fellows will select the most interesting cases for discussion. Presenters of cases selected for presentation during Cases Over Cocktails will receive a complimentary registration to the 2015 Scientific Sessions (a $350 value).
If selected, you will be asked to make a brief presentation of the case. An esteemed panel will then lead the audience in a rousing discussion that promises to be a highlight of the Scientific Sessions. Visit www.vascularmed.org/AM15 for more information.
