Clinical Congress Session Showcase

The Clinical Congress Session Showcase aims to highlight select panel sessions presented at Clinical Congress 2023. These sessions were hand-selected by the Clinical Congress Program Committee and will offer a fresh perspective on the most popular panel sessions at Clinical Congress.

• All registrants will have on-demand access to the 90-minute session that was presented in Boston and are encouraged to watch the video before the live webinar to ensure a deeper understanding of the material and allow for a more engaging discussion during the webinar. 
• During the live webinar, each speaker will highlight the key educational content covered at Clinical Congress 2023 and reinforce important points from their presentations. After the live webinar, the recording will be available on-demand on the course site.
• Additionally, leaders in the field will be invited to offer commentary during the webinar, adding an extra layer of expertise and insight. 

We hope that this series will provide another avenue for participants who were unable to attend Clinical Congress 2023 to advance their surgical knowledge through live interaction with the faculty. Attendees will be able to claim CME credit after completing the coursework and course evaluation.
