Although last Friday evening was far enough away from the holiday season for the Iowa River Power Restaurant to have already taken down its decorations, the members of the Division of Cardiovascular Medicine—staff, researchers, faculty, and fellows alike—were still in a celebratory mood. Unlike last year, the snow was not falling at a steady clip but was already on the ground and cleared from most sidewalks and roads by the time guests arrived. There were far fewer nervous glances out the window this time around, which meant guests were free to enjoy each other’s company over the course of a couple hours, catching each other up on how the new year was taking shape.
Thank you to the division for hosting the event and for everyone who took time out of their schedule to attend.
