Reflections from the President

Dear SAVIR Members and Colleagues,

While I write this message, we are only one month away from the SAVIR Annual Conference in Denver, Colorado on April 17-19, 2023.

As the SAVIR Conference Committee and the Scientific Committee are working diligently to finalize the conference agenda and other conference logistics, I am glad to share with you the conference has reached 250 registrations as of March 17th. On behalf of SAVIR, I would like to thank all of you who are involved in the conference planning, abstract review, and other planning related activities. Due to the high demand of the Denver Hilton Garden Inn Union Station hotel, which is hosting our conference, SAVIR has recommended the nearby Rally Hotel at 1600 20th Street - about an 8-minute walk or a 2-minute drive. I strongly encourage those who plan to attend the conference but have not yet booked their hotel to act quickly. 

I am pleased to share that SAVIR has successfully launched the Career Center on the official SAVIR webpage (https://jobs.savirweb.org/home/index.cfm). This Career Center will allow web site users to view candidate resumes, store resumes, and monitor/manage job postings. This service will include an online job board, recruitment advertising, resume bank, career advice, resume services, coaching services, placement services and other services related to job searching and employer recruiting (“Career Services”). SAVIR Center Members will have a discount for posting job openings on the SAVIR Career Center. The Career Center is one of many services that SAVIR has implemented to serve its members and the community.

 I look forward to meeting you at the SAVIR Conference soon.

 Yours sincerely,

 Henry Xiang, MD, MPH, PhD, MBA
