Over the past several years, Iceland has emerged as a vibrant medical and scientific innovation center, with Kerecis at the forefront of wound healing and tissue repair.
The Northern Lights Wound Workshop is the leading scientific workshop for advancing the knowledge of the utility of fish skin grafts for managing chronic wounds and lower extremity injuries. The Aurora Award is given to the facility and accepted on behalf of the submitting provider for truly outstanding cases, judged by a panel of blind reviewers. Each HCP can only submit one case or one case series, and the submission (which will follow if determined eligible) needs to be a complete, unique start-to-finish case focusing on Kerecis use. Must include a Kerecis application photo. The PowerPoint submission must clearly and concisely tell the full story with high-quality pictures so the judges get the entire picture. The exchange of ideas is fostered between all attendees during this exclusive small-capacity event, where attendees present their findings.
