AASE Education and Research Foundation: Support the Next 50 Years of Echocardiography

ASE is strongly committed to the support and encouragement of research and education. Our industry partners have pledged generously to support our research grants and educational efforts in 2004. We think that our members will want to show their support to match the increased commitments from the Industry Roundtable. The Board of Directors recommends that physicians make a donation of $50 or more, and that sonographers and nurses donate $20 or more, if they are able. We hope you will include your contribution with your dues payment. These contributions are tax deductible as charitable donations to the ASE Education & Research Foundation. Funding will be used for the following purposes in 2005: five Sonographer Student Scholarships, four Young Investigator Awards, and travel stipends for students and physicians from developing countries to attend the Annual Scientific Sessions. Please click here for more information on ASE Foundation activities and to make YOUR pledge.
