ISES 18th Annual General Assembly/Annual Meeting

ISES Honors and Awards of Excellence

Great Debates

The 18th General Assembly and Annual Meeting of the Society will be held during ISES Week 2011! on Tuesday, February 15, 2011, beginning with a business meeting for ISES members and ticketed guests only.  ISES Week 2011! is scheduled for February 13-17, 2011 during the same week as iCON 2011.

The 18^th Annual General Assembly and ISES Honors and Awards of Excellence have been combined into one event for 2011 at the Phoenician Resort in Scottsdale, Arizona.

Combining the events during the Society’s General Assembly/Annual Meeting makes the event more accessible to all ISES members who are in Arizona and be able to participate in paying tribute to those members and/or individuals who will be honored for their service to ISES and JEVT, the peripheral vascular profession/community and for their impact on education.  What better opportunity for all members of the organization to participate and celebrate member accomplishments and as a successful organization.

We invite all members of the Society to attend this special member event as is always a benefit of your valued membership in the Society.  A partial list of agenda items for the 17^th Annual General Assembly Meeting and ISES Honors and Awards of Excellence include:

• Reports from the ISES President and Chairman
• Council and Committee Reports
• Induction of new ISES President
• Presentation of Slate of Officers and Election
• Update on the ISES Education and Research Institute activities
• Presentation of the 12^th Annual ISES Endovascular Research Awards (competition between the six finalists held the day prior during the Endovascular Research Forum)
• ISES and JEVT Milestone Awards for those members celebrating their 5, 10, and 15 year anniversaries with the Society or with the the JEVT Editorial Board
• ISES Impact Awards
• Presentation of the Edward B. Diethrich Award of Excellence in Education

The ISES Annual meeting precedes the afternoon’s Great Debates, which at the invitation of iCON 2011 is open to all ISES members at no charge.

The always popular 8^th Annual ISES Silent Auction will take place the entire meeting week beginning Sunday, February 13^th through Thursday, February 17^th.  Items relating to travel packages, jewelry, collectibles and much more will be available to the highest bidder. Take the opportunity to bid on a lifetime ISES membership as well! Why is the ISES Auction important to ISES members and the organization?  The ISES Auction each year raises important money which is earmarked for future education and research programs conducted by the Society. In 2010 the ISES Silent Auction raised over $7,000 for ISES Education Programs! The auction is will be available online in the weeks to come.
