Annual Symposium

13th Annual Surgery, Intervention, and Engineering Symposium

The VISE seminar series culminates with a winter Annual Surgery, Intervention, and Engineering Symposium which highlights panel sessions on cutting-edge topics of the day within procedural medicine research, a poster presentation showcase of translational projects at Vanderbilt, and finally a keynote seminar and reception.

Similar to the academic series, the symposium also serves a dual role within VISE.  To begin, it provides our trainees with an invaluable experience in a conference presentation.  More specifically, trainees have the following opportunities: (1) scientific poster creation and presentation, (2) experience in video-recorded shorts about their research, (3) exposure to what a panel discussion debates, and (4) important perspectives from a keynote speaker who is an experienced seasoned leader in the field.  The second role is more directed at the faculty and is designed to cross-pollinate research across ESI domains.  More specifically, the symposium is designed to have faculty and trainees interact and learn each other’s core competencies to foster new collaborative efforts.
