Congratulations to Valerie Luks, MD (Penn Medicine) for receiving the top score and presenting her research paper at the podium prior to Dr. E. Christopher Ellison's lecture.

Why Join A Local ACS Chapter?

Why belong to your local chapter? Local chapters offer opportunities to network with colleagues in your backyard, attend seminars and other educational events close to home and monitor legislative and regulatory issues affecting Pennsylvania physicians. Chapter members looking for guidance or assistance with an issue can reach out to another member, close to home, that could be dealing with the same state-related issue.
