Solicitation of Articles for The Residents’ Forum. A Proposed New Vascular Specialist Column 

Just as our audience and our reporting broadly encompasses vascular surgery and medicine we believe that our writers should come from these areas of general interest. As a result we propose a new monthly column written by and focused on the interests of Vascular Fellows and Residents. The tentative title is “The Residents’ Forum.” This is an opportunity for current Vascular Fellows or Residents to write 700 to 800 words about whatever is on their minds and to share it with your colleagues and the entire vascular community.

Selection will be based upon the interest of the topic, which is left entirely to the author’s discretion, the thoughtfulness of the message, and the writing skills on display. Personal essays are welcome and encouraged.

There is no need to run it past your program director unless you want to. Go ahead and give it a try. There will be nothing else like this on your Curriculum Vita. Let the nascent English Major inside you come out! Your article will be published next to our usual editorial content together with expert perspective from our editorial board, Vieth’s Viewpoint, the Editor’s Diary, occasional invited articles and all the news from the SVS.

We look forward to hearing from you.
