Other opportunities
♥ Society Support – not obvious other than support
from local institutions-suggestions?
♥ Research Funding
 American Society of Echocardiography – must be
research focused and prospective would be more likely
fundable (contacts made, awaiting details regarding
process)
 Other potential sources-as for ASE, funding more likely
with prospective studies. We will be in a better position
as well for support if we have demonstrated more
publication and other funding success
