Grand Hyatt San Antonio, TX

 
Call for Abstracts for the 58th Annual Symposium will be accomplished electronically and sent to SAFCS Headquarters.

CME requirements for speakers must be completed at the time of abstract submission at the following link: CME. All abstracts should be submitted for a podium presentation. Abstracts that are not accepted as finalists for the Paul W. Myers Resident Research Competition or the Trauma competition will be considered for presentation at the specialty breakout sessions. Abstracts should be submitted on one page to include the information on page two.

The Paul W. Myers & Trauma papers must be original work performed by the author and must not have been published prior to the deadline for submission, 2 December 2011. The paper may have been previously presented at another meeting but must not have won any previous award. Chosen presenters will be notified by 16 December 2011 and the completed manuscript for the PWM presentation is due 30 December 2011. Presenters must notify SAFCS by 29 December 2011 if they are accepting or declining the invitation to present.

There will be money awards of $1000 and $500 for the top presenters in the PWM Award, as well as $500 for the top Trauma papers. Competition is open to all members, requires no special application, and the Trauma Paper winners have the opportunity to present at the COT competition held annually in August at USUHS. Reserve and Deferred status members must arrange for their own expenses, as the Air Force Centrally Funded TDY does not apply.

On behalf of the Society of Air Force Clinical Surgeons Board of Governors, I urge you to begin preparation for this important meeting.
