2nd Swiss Experimental Surgery Symposium
10 October 2005 - 11:27 Filed in:
MeetingsThe 2nd Swiss Experimental Surgery Symposium will be held Thursday 12 and Friday 13 January, 2006 in Geneva, Switzerland. Medical research, especially surgical research, is becoming more and more important in our current world of innovations, fast application of new devices and implementation of new techniques in humans. All these projects necessarily require pre-clinical testing which is normally carried out in large animal trials. Thus, it is of utmost importance to train young researchers, whether medical or veterinary doctors, biologists or engineers in order that they may acquire the necessary competencies.
A wide panel of Swiss and international experts are invited to make it a state-of-the-art symposium. Such meetings are not only important for the teaching of technical aspects, but they also give the opportunity to consider ethical and regulatory aspects of animal use for experimentation. Finally, the human networking aspect of such a meeting and exchanging ideas and knowledge is equally important.
