If there is an attending out there that was an inspiration mentor to you, or really helped guide you through your surgery rotation, or encouraged you with research or just really reminds you of someone that embodies what every professor should be, nominate that person!

2009 SSIG BOARD
Thank you to everyone that applied for an 09-10 position for the SSIG board. We enjoyed reading your applications and will notify you soon if you are selected for a board position. One of the great things about SSIG is that everyone can be involved, so even if you aren't a board member your input is always taken into consideration, just talk to a board member and it can happen.
