UPCOMING RESIDENT OPPORTUNITIES

The Virginia Radiological Society Resident and Fellow Section (RFS) will soon be holding elections for the RFS Executive Council. This will be our 10th year as a formal RFS in Virginia. Becoming a member of the Executive Council offers the chance to be a part of our continuous growth and a seat at the table during regional and national level discussions on the state of radiology and health care at large. This has been a rewarding experience for all of us and we encourage you to submit an application!

The current RFS positions are as follows: President, Vice President, Secretary, Education Liaison, and Communications Liaison. We also have positions open for the Resident Board Member to the Virginia Radiological Society Board (one position per residency program). We hold hour-long meetings about every other month (6 hour commitment per year) and require attendance at the annual state Society meeting. This past year, the RFS continued to provide its extremely high yield annual board review course and participated in our annual lobby days in Richmond and Washington, DC. We are also working to expand our outreach to interested students in local medical schools. There is great potential for expanding the RFS if you are someone with a vision!

Detailed descriptions of the requirements of each RFS Executive Council position can be found by clicking here (section 7 & 8 of the RFS Bylaws).

The deadline for applications is FRIDAY, JULY 18TH at 5:00 PM. You do not have to be present at the annual meeting to run for a position. However, attending may help your chances of winning because voting will take place IN PERSON at the meeting. The meeting will be held August 2-3, 2025 at the Kingsmill Resort in Richmond, Virginia (More details HERE).

Should you have any questions, please feel free to email me at dsteffey_otss@hotmail.com or email the VRS Executive Director, Lara Knowles, at lknowles@ramdocs.org.
