General Surgery Residents & Medical Students

Continuing its rich tradition of providing general surgery residents and medical students a way to explore vascular surgery as a career option, the Resident and Student Outreach Committee slated four webinars for students and trainees. The 90-minute webinars were aimed at general surgery residents in years one through five, and medical students with an interest in vascular surgery.

The first three webinars were of interest to those in particular phases of the process, while the fourth one covered topics of interest to all students, general surgery residents and vascular surgery trainees.
