A great opportunity for students and others in the physician-scientist career path
The Association of American Physicians, the American Society for Clinical Investigation, and the American Physician-Scientists Association are pleased to announce this Call for Abstracts for presentation at the 2018 AAP/ASCI/APSA Joint Meeting, April 20-22, 2018, in Chicago, IL. This meeting provides fantastic exposure to leaders in academic medicine and industry. The Joint Meeting keynote speakers will focus on two thematic areas: Human Genetics and Healthy Longevity. Please forward this email to interested colleagues.
The vast majority of poster presenters are students in the physician-scientist career path (MD/PhD programs or MD students in a research year) or early career physician-scientists. Work presented spans the range of medical specialties and biomedicine. While other research areas may be accepted for presentation, they do not represent the majority of the presenter demographic.
