1 REGISTRATION BROCHURE SNIS/Joint Cerebrovascular Section Fellows Courses

2 Greetings! Once again, the Society of NeuroInterventional Surgery (SNIS) and the Joint Cerebrovascular Section join forces to host the much-anticipated Fellows Course, scheduled for February at the in. This one-and-a-half day investment, in advance of the AANS/CNS Joint Cerebrovascular Section Annual Meeting and the International Stroke Conference, the Fellows Course is designed to provide all attendees with a memorable learning experience. Broadly speaking, this forum will provide you with the unique opportunity to advance your training, both in the classroom and in the treatment setting. More specifically, this 24-hour educational tour will serve to introduce you to the people and topics that will no doubt have a significant impact on your career in the short- and long-term. Whether in the presence of the veterans of our field, other colleagues or industry representatives, you ll enjoy plenty of opportunities to listen, debate and discuss the hottest trends, issues and developments in neurointervention today. It all kicks off on Sunday evening with a hands-on lab/reception where you can enjoy some dedicated interaction learning more about the tools of the trade currently on the market as well as what is coming down the pike. This is your opportunity to handle various devices in a simulated environment in the company of those who can share the particulars of each instrument s performance and answer all your questions on the spot. On Monday, you ll leave the virtual angiosuite behind as you dive into three distinct session blocks, all designed to provide you with a 360-degree perspective of neurointervention. Starting with a session dedicated to making the most of your fellowship and treating aneurysms. From there, you ll focus on acute stroke. Following lunch, you ll wrap up with a session dedicated to AVMs. While the planning committee has worked hard to develop a program that would be well worth your time from an educational standpoint, we have also taken great care to guarantee the meeting s feasibility for any interested party. To that end, not only is there zero cost to attend, but also each participant will also be awarded a $750 travel stipend. This offer is reflective of the mutual commitment of both SNIS and the AANS/CNS Joint Cerebrovascular Section to invest in the future of our field... and you, the eventual scientific caretakers who will one day be leading it and innovating new opportunities to advance neurointerventional research and treatments for the good of patients everywhere. Thank you for your enthusiasm and eagerness to make a difference! We look forward to seeing you in Houston. Sincerely, James Milburn, MD Chair, 2017 Fellows Courses Chair, 2017 Fellows Courses
