Applications for the Research Career Development Travel Awards are due Aug. 15.
The award, now in its second year, is designed to support early-career vascular surgeons with an interest in basic science, translational or clinical research with both money and mentoring.
Honorees receive $1,500 in financial support to attend an established research career development course, and they also are assigned an SVS research mentor to provide guidance and discuss academic career advancement, including other available resources and opportunities.
Applicants must be either an SVS Candidate or Active member who has completed postgraduate clinical training in vascular surgery and has been in practice no more than seven years.
