By submitting research to the SIR Annual Scientific Meeting, members help build connections, collaborations and support a culture of evidence-based, patient-first science. At SIR 2025, over 20 abstracts were recognized for their excellence, quality, timeliness and content.
Read on to learn more about this year's science, hear from the researchers and learn how it may be changing future practice paradigms. Plus, mark your calendars: Abstract submissions for SIR 2026 will open this summer.
