There is increasing emphasis across surgical specialties on sound education and a growing recognition that education is key to safe clinical practice and effective professional development, however surgery presents unique opportunities and challenges to educators and trainers. Here, we discuss methods and approaches to the education of surgical students, residents, and fellows, as well as practicing surgeons and this topic will act as a resource for principal investigators, lab managers, supervisors, educators, researchers, and the wider community within surgery for the education and training of surgeons.
We welcome contributions in the form of original research, review, mini review, case report, hypothesis and theory, perspective, and experimental studies that cover, but are not limited to, following themes:
- Training models or programs
- E-learning
- Video-assisted Surgery and 3D Imaging
- Innovation and integration of technology, especially in teaching and learning
- Emerging and successful educational approaches
