We invite you to engage with cutting-edge innovation, global collaboration, and the profound realities of a surgical career through our dynamic and thoughtfully curated program tracks. Our Digital Surgery program brings together foundational knowledge and evolving technologies, covering AI, surgical data science, robotics, telepresence, and visualization. Global Surgery sessions center on shared learning across borders, with bilingual panels and honest dialogue from colleagues working in resource-limited settings. Our program will also reflect the depth, complexity, and humanity of a surgical career with a three-part series titled A Surgeon’s Life, exploring the moral challenges surgeons face—including moral injury, personal failure, and the realities of aging in practice. The Back to Basics series revisits core principles of surgical care, paired with current SAGES guidelines, while This is the Way, a.k.a. Masters Series, highlights expert strategies for technically demanding situations. The Disasters sessions will provide real-world video-based case reviews, and our highly attended Debates encourage open discussion around some of today’s most persistent controversies. Also get ready to roll up your sleeves and dive into our hands-on courses—featuring Common Bile Duct Exploration, Robotic Transverse Abdominus Release, Per-Oral Endoscopic Myotomy, or Single Anastomosis Duodenal Switch.
