Dear Colleagues,

The Association of VA Surgeons is now accepting abstracts for our upcoming Annual Meeting, taking place from April 6-8, 2025 at the Ritz-Carlton, Atlanta, GA. This event provides a unique platform for VA surgeons to share their research, clinical innovations, and best practices to advance surgical care within the VA system.

Submission Deadline: January 10, 2025 at Midnight Pacific

Topics of Interest Include:

  • Surgical outcomes and quality improvement
  • Advances in minimally invasive techniques
  • Veteran-focused healthcare delivery innovations
  • Surgical education and training within the VA system
  • Other topics relevant to VA surgeons

We encourage submissions from all levels of experience, including trainees, as well as those focusing on collaborative and interdisciplinary approaches to surgical care. Selected abstracts will be featured in oral presentations, offering an excellent opportunity to engage with peers and leaders in VA surgery.

The AVAS also partners with JAMA Surgery, a premiere peer-reviewed journal, to select quality papers from our conference, providing an excellent opportunity for broader visibility and impact within the surgical community.

Please submit your abstract via the submission link below. For any questions, contact us at vasurgeons@gmail.com.

We look forward to your contributions and to advancing surgical excellence together!
