A big thank you to the staff at RPA Institute of Academic Surgery as well as our surgeon mentors, Dr Carolyn Jameson and Dr Jonathan Hong, for generously donating their time to train our team. We would also like to thank HETI and Royal Australasian College of Surgeons for organising the event.

Keep a look out for next year’s recruitment!
