BCIS Council Election result October 2017

9th October 2017

On behalf of BCIS Council I am pleased to announce that Dan McKenzie was successful in the recent election and has joined BCIS Council as Ordinary Council Member. This followed an incredibly competitive election process in which 11 extremely strong candidates were competing for a single position. I would also like to thank all of the other candidates who put themselves forward, as well as all those members who voted. I have no doubt Dan will make a major contribution to the Society, and am delighted to welcome him to the Council.

BCIS Young Investigator Research DAY: Call to submit abstracts

22nd September 2017

DEADLINE  EXTENDED to 23rd October 2017

Call for abstracts for BCIS Young Investigator Competition to be held at RCP London 30/11/17

Dear Member

We are organising the YIA Competition differently this year.

The plan is to hold a Research Day at RCP London on 30/11/17 during which a panel made up of BCIS Research Group members will listen to shortlisted abstracts being presented, following which there will be up to 10 mins of questions.

The best 3 presentations will then be shortlisted for the formal YIA session at ACI in January, when they will compete for the overall title of Young Investigator of the Year, with prize presentations at the dinner at ACI.

All abstracts selected for presentation on 30/11 will be published in a Heart supplement.

We are therefore inviting submissions for the Research Day on 30/11/17.

Submissions should be made online to bcis@millbrookconferences.com using the below template.

Successful submissions will be notified approximately 1 week after the closing date of 23/10/17 at 1700hrs.

Good luck!

Best wishes

BCIS Council Election 2015 – BCIS Ordinary Council Members Result

Dear BCIS Member

Further to the recent elections, we are delighted to announce that our 2 new elected BCIS Ordinary Council members are Phil MacCarthy and Tim Wells.

We had 12 excellent candidates and consequently, this was a highly competitive election. This shows the momentum and support BCIS has within the country and we need motivated individuals to help improve and evolve Cardiovascular Intervention within the UK. Please do keep a lookout for further representative opportunities that may arise in the future.

We look forward to seeing you at ACI next week!
