This year’s meeting will include a focus on operating room ergonomics, as well as video-driven education, instruction on the incorporation of new technology like artificial intelligence, and the introduction of new and emerging innovative techniques. We are featuring sessions from experienced experts that will help you optimize your career, such as “Things I Wish I Knew When I Started My Practice”. We have added additional hands-on opportunities including endo bariatrics, impedance planimetry (endoFLIP), common bile duct exploration, and intracorporeal anastomosis. As always, collaboration with multiple international surgical societies will be abundant.
