The AAS and SUS invite you to be a part of the 21st Annual Academic Surgical Congress (ASC) to be held February 3-5, 2026 at the Hilton Orlando Buena Vista Palace, Lake Buena Vista, FL.
Each exhibiting company is encouraged to feature a hands-on skills module, game, or quiz which will challenge attendees to successfully complete a specific task within a given time frame. The interactive challenge can range from knot tying to suturing, to simulated skills or games, each of which tests some aspect of surgical ability or knowledge.
More than 2,000 academic surgeons from a breadth of disciplines will participate. Medical students, residents, and young surgeons will be acknowledged for their thought provoking work and established surgical leaders will present keynote addresses.
2026 Prospectus Coming Soon!
For more information, please contact Colleen Elkins, ASC Director of Development at 310-986-6444, ext 114, or via email: [email protected].
