During SOLACI’s Regional Sessions carried out in Lima, Peru, on November 16-17, 2023, the traditional Contest for Young Interventional Cardiologists was held, and different young physicians presented relevant case studies to be assessed by a board of experts selected by SOLACI.

This contest encourages young hemodynamics physicians to present their work before prestigious Latin American professionals as a way for them to start to acquire experience in the international arena. 

In this opportunity, the winner of our Contest for Young Cardiologists was Dr. Christian Méndez Aguilar, from Mexico.

SOLACI congratulates Dr. Méndez Aguilar who has been granted free registration, accommodation, and air fare for the next SOLACI Regional Sessions. We extend our congratulations to all participants in the contest and invite you to keep participating in the next SOLACI events.
