Robotics and Minimally Invasive Surgery: Best Practices and Breakthroughs

This one-and-a-half-day course will convey the advancements of robotic surgery in general, colorectal, and acute care surgery. As the field of minimally invasive surgery shifts from laparoscopic to robotic, we will explore the new technology available, how to transition clinical and educational programs, and the future impacts on the field. Lectures will be mixes of procedural, operational, and educational topics to cover the many affects of robotic and laparoscopic
surgeries have on both academic medical centers and community hospitals.
