SIR 2016 Vancouver: Early Career Section "Exploring IR" Session

Seeking questions for the "In Your Experience" Panel

During the 2016 Annual Scientific Meeting in Vancouver, BC, the Early Career Section will be hosting the several meetings and events focused on addressing the needs and interests of young professionals. One of these meetings is a session in SIR targeted toward Interventionalists early on in their career.

The "In Your Experience" Panel will feature panelists that have extensive experience in both the private practice setting and academics. They will be giving answers to questions provided by YOU. Did you ever wonder how they managed to maintain a strong presence in the PVD space without alienating their vascular surgery colleagues? How did they maintain a close relationship with diagnostic radiology during years that their interventional practice was not profitable? What would they be worried about if they were just starting their career?
