2023 Program

Registration for the 2023 scholarship program is closed. Travel scholarships will be awarded August 29.

The Physicians-in-Training program at VIVA and The VEINS 2023 offers a series of fellows & residents sessions designed to enhance your skill set as a vascular specialist and personal growth as an early-career professional. Participants will also join the general sessions at VIVA and The VEINS, providing a well-rounded educational experience.

The attendees of the fellows and residents scholarship program will have the exclusive opportunity to visit each commercial supporter of the program during an intimate reception on Tuesday, October 31.


FACE-OFF COMPETITION

Program attendees who are attending VIVA will participate in the Face-Off competition, which offers the opportunity to present an interesting case or original research in a 7-minute session, followed by 3 minutes of Q&A from members of the VIVA faculty. Cases will focus on the endovascular or medical treatment of peripheral vascular disease. Presentations are judged on clarity, depth, originality, and interest to field. Winners will present their case in the Spotlight Theater on the final day of the VIVA conference.

Those who are attending only The VEINS conference will not compete in the Face-Off competition.
