2027 Vascular Research Initiatives Conference (VRIC)

The Vascular Research Initiatives Conference (VRIC) is where basic science and translational vascular research take center stage. Share your discoveries with vascular surgeons, biologists, trainees and other researchers — and make new connections that advance vascular science and lead to the next breakthrough in patient care. 

VRIC is one of the only meetings dedicated to vascular surgeon-scientists and their research partners. It offers a uniquely supportive platform for investigators at all stages of their careers. Whether you’re an established leader, a post-doctoral researcher or a trainee, VRIC provides the visibility, feedback and professional connections to help your research make an impact. 

Held alongside the American Heart Association's (AHA) Vascular Discovery Scientific Sessions, VRIC allows you to attend two premier meetings in a single trip. (Please note: VRIC and Vascular Discovery Scientific Sessions are two separate conferences with separate registration fees.) 

More information on abstract submissions is coming soon!
