Resident Travel Scholarships
The ASPS/PSF Resident Travel Scholarship is once again available for plastic surgery residents to attend Plastic Surgery the Meeting 2025 (PSTM25).
This scholarship is intended to cultivate future leaders among junior residents and international trainees in plastic surgery. Thanks to our sponsor, KLS Martin Group, nine resident scholarships of $1,400 each will be awarded to offset registration, travel and lodging costs to attend PSTM25, which will be held Oct. 9 –12 in New Orleans.
Training Program Directors may nominate one resident from their institution who they feel has demonstrated potential to be a future leader of ASPS/PSF. Please kindly note:
- Only one nomination will be accepted per institution.
- Only residents in the first four clinical years of an integrated program or the first year of an independent program, at the time of the meeting, may be nominated.
- Recipients must be resident subscribers of ASPS (subscription must remain active through PSTM).
- A letter of recommendation should be shared with the resident being nominated to include in their application.
The application is now available and will be accepted through May 31. Scholarship recipients will be notified in early July. For more information or questions, please contact Angela Oswald at aoswald@plasticsurgery.org.
