We invite you to be a part of the 5th Annual Academic Surgical Congress, February 3-5, 2010 at the Marriott San Antonio Rivercenter in San Antonio, Texas.
Five years ago AAS (Association for Academic Surgery) and SUS (Society of University Surgeons) joined forces to create the Academic Surgical Congress. These groups share a similar mission: To improve the overall quality of surgical patient care through excellence in research and education.
By exhibiting and marketing your company at the 2010 Academic Surgical Congress, your organization will have invaluable access to the nation's most prominent academic surgeons—we expect over 1000 surgeons to attend!
Your support will not only help make the meeting a success, but will provide your organization with invaluable access and exposure to these academic surgeons. Exhibiting and Marketing Support Opportunities go quickly; you are encouraged to submit your application as soon as possible!

| Association for Academic Surgery |
Society of University Surgeons |
The Association for Academic Surgery (AAS) is composed principally of young surgical faculty. The AAS recognizes that effective scientific and clinical research is paramount to advancement in the understanding and treatment of surgical diseases.
Its mission therefore, is to stimulate young surgeons to pursue careers in academic surgery and to support them in establishing themselves as investigators and educators.
Founded in 1966, the AAS currently has over 2,800 active and senior members, many of whom are current thought leaders in American surgery. |
The Society of University Surgeons (SUS) has been recognized as the world's premier organization dedicated to the advancement of surgical sciences.
SUS' 1,600 members are the leaders of academic surgery, who not only contribute daily to medical advancement, but provide the training for the next generation of surgeons.
With academic members from every leading medical institution in the United States, the Society of University Surgeons provides both corporate organizations and the public with key contacts to an elite group of surgeons. |
