Description
Administered through SIR Foundation, this award introduces medical students interested in interventional radiology to the wider professional community at the SIR Annual Scientific Meeting. It recognizes the student author of an accepted abstract that best honors the spirit of inventiveness and scientific purity.
The program supports meeting participation rather than a new research project. Travel assistance and complimentary registration enable recipients to present original research and connect with the interventional radiology community. It is intended for students at accredited medical schools who have demonstrated interest in interventional radiology as a career and participated meaningfully in research guided by SIR members.
