About this event

The Australian Medical Robotics Academy (AMRA) features cutting edge surgical robots and virtual simulators to enable surgeons to hone their skills before live surgery. The training programme aims to mirror training in the airline industry, with simulation allowing multiple risk-free attempts at surgical procedures until they are perfected.

Please join AMRA and Jacobs for a catered seminar which will focus on the combined clinical, training and social use of the facility itself as well as demonstrating the manifold technologies, both robotic and virtual simulator, that serve to train surgeons over multiple repeats of a procedure prior to qualifying to operate on live patients.

Presenters include Professor Tony Costello, AM - Robotic Surgeon and CEO of AMRA and Mr Ben Smart, Jacobs Health Team Leader (Victoria). Tony and Ben will be joined by leaders in their respective fields of research and innovation.
