Welcome From the SIR Foundation Discovery Campaign
Transforming the practice of medicine is a fundamental principle of
interventional radiology (IR). With that comes the onus of proving our
procedures work. SIR Foundation is the mechanism through which we seek
to establish the safety and efficacy of IR.
The Discovery Campaign, launched in 2007 with an SIR membership phase,
was a major fund raising initiative to further the growth of minimally
invasive medicine into new areas of discovery. As the Campaign comes to
a close in 2013, SIR Foundation wishes to acknowledge
the hundreds of generous SIR members and industry supporters who
have contributed to a strengthened research commitment that ensures IR
remains at the forefront of patient care.
SIR members advanced Discovery Campaign beyond goal
Donations to the membership phase of the SIR Foundation Discovery
Campaign exceeded fundraising goals, raising more than $2.7 million in
support of research. We thank the many SIR
members who made incredibly generous contributions, surpassing the
efforts of past fundraising initiatives.
Even though the Discovery Campaign has concluded, financial support of
research and education is still a necessity. Please donate
to the Annual Fund today to make a positive investment in your
future by ensuring that IR remains vibrant and important for the rest
of your career.
Industry support vital to success of the Discovery Campaign to advance IR
2010 marked the initiation of the Campaign's outreach to industry for
support, which resulted in more than $3 million raised from industry
supporters. This strengthened commitment to research ensures that IR
physicians remain at the front line of innovation and that industry has
a strong voice in the specialty's future. The SIR Foundation is honored
to recognize its Discovery Campaign industry supporters who are listed
on this page.
While the Discovery Campaign has concluded, there are many
opportunities for your company to join with SIR Foundation to keep the
pioneering nature of IR alive, vibrant and expanding, please contact development@sirfoundation.org.
