About the Schedule
Join us Friday morning as we tee off the weekend with our annual FRS/FRBMA Golf Tournament. Friday evening will bring exhibitors and members together for the popular Wine and Cheese Reception which will be held in the Exhibit Hall. Please be sure to visit with the exhibitors and thank them for their continued support of the FRS & FRBMA. On Saturday, breakfast and coffee breaks will be held in the exhibit hall. Later, exhibitors will lunch with attendees to allow for maximum discussion and interaction.
The informative and dynamic educational program begins with the FRBMA Session on Friday afternoon and continues on Saturday morning with an outstanding lineup of speakers. The focus of this year’s meeting is “Strategies for Success in Times of Transition”.
On Saturday morning, we will kick off our new annual series, “The Steven G. Miles Keynote Socioeconomic Address”, featuring Dr. Frank Lexa. Sunday morning begins with the “Irwin L. Entel M.D., FACR Legacy Lecture and Breakfast” presented by Dr. Richard Morin this year.
On Saturday, there will also be breakout sessions for Radiation Oncology and the Resident and Fellow Section.
Our marquee event, the Annual Award Reception and Cocktail Party, will be held early Saturday evening to honor the FRBMA Above and Beyond Award recipient. Other outstanding members will also be recognized for their contributions to the practice of radiology throughout the year. The earlier time for this event allows opportunity to go out and enjoy Sarasota’s nightlife!
