People interested in participating in the sixth annual Edmond T. Gonzales, Jr. Surgical Research Day must submit an abstract by Monday, February 9. Anyone involved in surgery-related research is encouraged to participate.
Authors of top peer-reviewed abstracts will have the opportunity to present their research at the event, which will be from 7 a.m. to 1 p.m., Friday, May 8, in Texas Children’s Pavilion for Women fourth-floor conference center.
Authors who are not selected for an oral presentation will be invited to present their work as a poster, with a prize awarded to the top scoring one. The third annual Samuel Stal Research Award also will be presented at Surgical Research Day to recognize outstanding research by a resident or fellow in the Department of Surgery.
Hosted by the Department of Surgery and the Department of Research Administration, and started by Edmond T. Gonzales, Jr., a Texas Children’s urologist and the organization’s first surgeon-in-chief, Surgical Research Day includes invited lecturers, presentations and posters that showcase the academic efforts of the surgical faculty, post- graduate trainees, nursing personnel and operating room staff.
