The London Surgical Symposium is now in its fourteenth year. This inclusive educational forum brings international experts on surgical innovation to London to discuss advances in a diverse range of topics in general surgery. It provides a forum for surgical researchers, trainees and clinicians from all aspects of surgical care to present their work and to enjoy a day of education.
The Royal College of Surgeons of England has awarded up to 1.5 CPD points.
Given the current COVID-19 pandemic, this year the Symposium will be hosted as an online event.
