About Us
The Interventional Radiology Interest Group (IRIG) is a student-run organization to help students explore the field of Interventional Radiology (IR). Intended for medical students of all classes who are interested in the practice and changing scope of IR. Through weekly lectures by interventionalists from the UCSF Department of Radiology, student will be introduced to the various specialties within the field of IR; the fundamental theory, clinical utility, and role of IR in the hospital; and, the most recent scientific advances in and future applications of interventional procedures. In addition, a focus of the group is to help students prepare for success in navigating applications to new integrated IR residency programs through mentor matching, research opportunities, national conference support, and resident panels.
