SVIN professor rounds

Professor Rounds offer an interactive, small-group learning experience within the poster hall. During these moderated sessions, expert faculty (“Professors”) lead attendees through a series of selected posters, engaging presenters in discussion and highlighting key clinical insights, research findings, and implications for practice. Participants have the opportunity to ask questions, share perspectives, and deepen their understanding of emerging topics in the field.

This format combines the educational value of traditional poster sessions with the dynamic exchange typical of clinical rounds—encouraging dialogue between presenters, faculty, and attendees.

Moderated Poster Schedule will be announced prior to conference.
