Dear colleagues!
Hereby we would like to invite you and your dear colleagues to honor us on the occasion of the XXVII Congress of the Experimental Surgery Section of the Hungarian Surgical Society, June 12-14, 2019.

Institute of Surgical Research organizing the Congress is taking on a big task with arranging such a wide spectrum of the healthcare simulation training including several manual professions such as traumatology, gynecology, surgery, anesthesiology, and cardiology. Translational research topics about surgical innovations, high-tech trauma surgery and traumatology are highlighted areas. As a unique opportunity within the Congress, we provide the opportunity to the participants to learn about the latest traumatic, anesthetic, and neuro-interventional procedures. Both young clinicians and highly experienced professional mentors are expected to attend the workshops and roundtable discussions.
