We are pleased to announce the launch of our society mentorship program.
The aim is to extend the exposure of junior HBP surgeons for various types of advanced HBP operations which are not available in their own hospitals e.g. liver transplant, laparoscopic hepatectomy, robotic HBP surgery etc. This can enhance the knowledge and skills of junior HBP surgeons and reduce the need of overseas attachment for similar purpose.
Hospital in the program will provide a list of mentors for the intended specific HBP operation with specified period of program. The mentor will make arrangement for observation of the intended HBP operation like permission to enter to operation theatre. Additional activities like observation of per-operative management program and postoperative visit may be arranged as per mentor’s discretion.
Now our society would open the application for the program with details as below.
