The 7th Annual NJ IR Symposium has been organized by a New Jersey student-led group in partnership with the medical student IR organizations from all 5 New Jersey medical schools. We hope to showcase the best it has to offer.
Â
The inception of this conference was derived from a need felt both in New Jersey and across the country to expose medical students to IR. The mission of our annual IR symposium is to share our passion for interventional radiology with our peers while engaging them in a fun and interactive discussion with leaders in the field.Â
The 7th Annual NJ IR Symposium will feature speakers, panels, and ample networking opportunities. This year’s speakers and honored-guests will be coming in from Columbia, Cooper, Jefferson, Mount Sinai New York, Rutgers, University of Pennsylvania, Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, University of Maryland, Weill Cornell, and private practice. They will discuss several emerging topics in IR such as Biodesign in IR, interventional oncology, and residency pathways. Interactive exhibitions by leading technology companies in IR will be showcased at the event. An educational case competition will be open to all medical students and will provide them with the opportunity to share interesting cases.
The case competition is open to all residents, fellows, and medical students. The top 2 cases will be presented live at the symposium and will receive a prize package each!
