Meet the Mentors
In an effort to provide virtual education for AAST Fellows, the Acute Care Surgery Committee has developed the "Meet the Mentors" series. This is available ONLY to AAST Fellows and gives you a unique opportunity to connect with some of the top surgeons in the field.
Meet the Mentors takes place on Tuesdays at 3pm ET/2pm CT/1pm MT/12pm PT. Fellows will receive an email with the link to the session.
Below you will find the list of Upcoming Meet the Mentors Sessions as well as the past Meet the Mentors session recordings and power point slides. Please note: recorded sessions and power points are available to Fellows Only.
