The AAST/ACS/COT Senior Visiting Surgeon Program is now well underway. The program has been tremendously successful as witnessed by the over fifty applications received to date. As a result of this response the SVS program is now scheduled for visits to Landstuhl Regional Medical Center in Ramstein Germany through the end of 2007.

For all those who have applied- thank you. For those who remain interested in the Senior Visiting Surgeon Program, the application process will be closed until future funding and available dates beginning in 2008 are secured. Please continue to monitor this site as the trip reports for all SVS participants will be posted here.

On behalf of the AAST/ACS and the COT -- Thank You.
