Not content with launching one award today, we are delighted to announce that applications are also open for the Averil Mansfield Travelling Fellowship! This award of up to £2500 is open to ASGBI members who are non-consultant doctors and supports visits to centres of excellence in emergency general surgery (EGS) across the UK and worldwide. Deadline - 28th February.

Big upgrade to the award this year! Definitely worth applying - especially now it can be completed from anywhere in the world. Seems unfair consultants are excluded!

The entire conversation on robotic surgery is too polarizing… the critics don’t use the 🤖at all and the supporters feel like it needs to be used for everything IMO there needs to be more robot ‘centrists’ out there who will say it’s good for some things and not others.

Delighted to represent @asgbi at the Visit Belfast Ambassador Awards in Titanic, Belfast. @VisitBelfast were fantastic in their support for our conference held in ICC Belfast. Honoured to pick up 2 awards on behalf of Team @asgbi #ambassadorawards24

We thank @RCSnews for this clear statement, with safe surgical practice and trainees at its core SCPs have a well defined scope of practice: performing parts of a lap cholecystectomy with or without supervision has never been acceptable We are thankful for the reminder to consultant colleagues to use every theatre opportunity to prioritise training the surgeons of tomorrow 🔗 tinyurl.com/RCSST

This is a really important discussion and our views are very clear. #NoTrainingTodayNoSurgeonsTomorrow @Schoolofsurg @ASiTofficial @Augishealth @RCSnews
