Intenational Exchange Program

RAS-ACS

International Exchange Program at Clinical Congress 2016 Listen as members of the Resident and Associate Society (RAS) interview International Exchange Program (IEP) scholars who attended Clinical Congress 2016 in Washington, DC. Each year, international scholars travel from their home countries to attend the annual ACS Clinical Congress, while scholars from the U.S. travel to attend the equivalent surgical congress abroad. In this podcast, we hear about the differences in training paradigms around the world from our scholars Shirley Potter (Ireland), Christine Goh (Australia), and Andrea Peloso (Italy). We also speak with Edward Shipper, the current RAS Communications Vice-Chair and recent IEP scholar, regarding his experience attending the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons Annual Scientific Congress last May.
