Dear Colleagues,
The beginning of 2021 has taken on a decidedly more optimistic air with the rollout of the vaccines and decreasing number of COVID-19 cases nationwide. Most of us have received the vaccine and share the sense of relief that comes with it. While the pandemic undoubtedly has some way to go before we can fully resume our normal lives, with a look to the future and proper precautions to ensure everyone's safety and enjoyment, we are going ahead with our 99th Annual Meeting at the JW Marriott Turnberry Resort in Miami from May 15th to May 18th.

ASPS has developed a free listing service to simplify the listing and search for all types of fellowship and training opportunities within the specialty. The goal of this initiative is to provide plastic surgeons and plastic-surgeons-in-training with a searchable database of plastic surgery fellowships, observerships and internships/externship available in the United States and throughout the world.
You are invited to post your fellowships, internships and other post-graduate plastic surgery training opportunities in the new Plastic Surgery Fellowship and Training Opportunities Directory at https://www1.plasticsurgery.org/globaltraining.
ASPS believes this directory will help publicize existing opportunities and provide a broad ranging listing for residents and all plastic surgeons who are seeking additional training. The listings are free to post and free to search for everyone. The directory will be searchable by sub-specialty, duration, country and/or region, paid or unpaid, and more. The Plastic Surgery Fellowship and Training Opportunities Directory is open to private plastic surgeons, institutions, and training directors to post their short and long-term training options.
