Castlefest 2017

Coming to a CASTLE near you …. April 10-14, 2017!

Ah… the planning for Castlefest 2017 is already in the works. If you have attended previously, you know what an amazing and educational event this is both for attendees and medical students. Where else can you find WORLD leaders in point-of-care ultrasound and resuscitation, all in one freakin’ awesome castle?

USIG leadership is beginning to look for medical and other healthcare student models (free healthcare, anyone?) to be scanned for the different hands-on stations. If you are interested in helping out, fill out these surveys:

More coming soon!  In the meantime, block off your schedule, #gymtanlaundry for modeling, and brush up on your scans at the last few upcoming USIG workshops.
