Outreach Programs
Professional Education

The foundation for CryoLife's success has been the support of the surgeon community nationwide.  That is why we are dedicated to providing education to the professional medical community through sponsorship of both domestic and international symposia. CryoLife also invests in the future of the medical community by hosting an annual symposium for cardiac surgery fellows.

CryoLife headquarters is home to the state-of-the-art Ronald C. Elkins, MD Learning Center, with a 225-seat auditorium and a 1,500 square foot laboratory for training surgeons.  Both facilities are equipped with closed circuit and satellite television broadcast capability.  With the Learning Center's broadcast and teleconferencing capability, live surgery broadcasts may be received from anywhere in the world.
