Research, Development, and Innovation Committee

The mission of the Research, Development, and Innovation Committee is to advance innovation in surgical education, training, and practice with the intent of improving patient care. The goal is to identify, evaluate, develop, and promote promising ideas, technologies, and research that can move from early concept and development through validation, implementation, outcomes assessment, and broad dissemination to improve patient care.
