Win a Scholarship to Attend the ACS Clinical Congress in San Diego, October 16 – 20, 2022!!

Due to the generosity of members of the Tennessee Chapter, we are pleased to announce the availability of scholarships for two members to attend the 2022 Clinical Congress in San Diego!

This award will be a competition among our members.  Applicants must submit a short statement (less than 250 words) on why a trip to attend the Clinical Congress will improve their practice of surgery and stimulate their participation in the Tennessee Chapter in addition to a current CV.

The funds must be used to support the registration fee for the Clinical Congress, airfare, meals, and hotel costs for the scholarship recipients. There is a requirement for the winning applicants to attend the 2023 Tennessee Chapter meeting and give a report on the benefits of this award to the recipient. An additional scholarship of $500 will be given to the winners to support travel and hotel costs for the 2023 Chapter meeting.

There will be a preference for Young Fellows and the Fellows who are in private practice (especially rural) who have no access to travel funds from their practice or academic department.

The deadline for application will be June 15, 2022.

Please submit applications to:
