2025 Vascular Research Initiatives Conference (VRIC)

Location: Marriott Baltimore Waterfront 700 Aliceanna St., Baltimore, MD

Abstract Deadline

November 20, 2024 - 6:00PM CST

Overview

Mark your calendars, the Vascular Research Initiatives Conference (VRIC) will be held a few weeks earlier this year on Tuesday, April 22, 2025!

The VRIC emphasizes the exchange of basic and translational vascular science that stimulates thoughtful discussion and motivates participants to discover solutions to important problems affecting vascular patients. The VRIC brings together vascular surgeons, vascular biologists, physicians with an interest in vascular problems, vascular surgery trainees and research trainees in vascular surgery and vascular biology.

The VRIC will be held in conjunction with the American Heart Association's Vascular Discovery 2025 Scientific Sessions From Genes to Medicine, also held at the Marriott Baltimore Waterfront (April 22-25, 2025). The SVS has teamed up with AHA to offer these two exclusive meetings in the same location and timeframe to help save attendees on travel costs; however, please note the VRIC and Vascular Discovery are two separate conferences with separate registration fees.
