Surgical Skills Simulation Course
Due to the current pandemic and virtual nature of the annual meeting the Surgical Skills Simulation course has been cancelled. Despite extensive discussions and attempting to retool the delivery for such an event performing in place of what has been done for this course virtually has proven challenging. We are interested in providing expertise to members of the society who wish to perform their own simulation programs or sessions locally for their trainees. We have among our committee extensive experience with simulation for both open and endovascular modules. We may be able to assist with resource identification for simulation materials, course design, and evaluation of trainees. If any members wish to pursue this assistance please reach out to us and we can schedule a meeting to discuss needs and provide assistance. For information please email mvs@bostonbased.com

MVSS Medical Student Education Program
The Society thanks all Medical Students who attended our Program on Thursday, September 8th.
Program Goals: The primary goal of this program is to introduce the specialty of Vascular Surgery as a career choice to medical students from the Midwest region. The program provides a unique opportunity for medical students at all levels to interact with members and leaders of the Midwestern Vascular Surgical Society (MVSS). Vascular Surgery faculty and trainees participating in the program have a particular interest in medical student education and mentorship.
Watch for additional information about the 2021 Medical Student Program and other programs for our trainees. Visit back as information becomes available.
