Conference Opportunities!

The 2nd Annual New York Regional Symposium of the American Physician Scientists Association (APSA) will be taking place November 22, 2008 at Mount Sinai School of Medicine. APSA is a national student organization dedicated to serving physician-scientists in training and is particularly focused on providing resources, networking and career development. One goal of our organization is to provide vertical mentoring for pre-medical, medical, and MD/PhD students interested in having a research component to their career.

The 2008 Symposium will feature keynote presentations focused on research and career development by Leon Rosenberg, MD, Katherine High, MD, Mark Ptashne, PhD, and Vern Schramm, PhD. Breakout sessions with panel discussions will allow attendees to gather information about a broad variety of topics including MD vs. MD/PhD vs. PhD career options, transitions throughout MD/PhD training, and advice on residency programs and admissions. We hope this conference will be very useful to MD and MD/PhD students in training.

To register and see the full schedule or find more information about the meeting, please visit the meeting website: nymeeting.physicianscientists.org. Last year's event sold out a number of weeks in advance, so please encourage your students to register early.

Sincerely,
David Braun
