The Annual Meeting of the Connecticut Chapter of the American College of Surgeons will be held on Friday, October 30th. Chapter leadership has decided to make the 2020 meeting virtual to help protect the heath and safety of the surgical community and our patients.
More information will be forthcoming, but it is expected that the Resident Paper Competitions will be held on Tuesday October 27th and Wednesday October 28th in the late afternoon or evening. Final times will be determined once we have all the papers in hand and the competitions spaced out. The 1st place papers from all categories will be presented again on Friday October 30th in the morning as part of the online Chapter meeting.
