APSA-IPSO Symposium
Join us a day early for the International Society of Paediatric Surgical Oncology (IPSO) Symposium immediately preceding the American Pediatric Surgical Association (APSA) annual meeting. The popular quadrennial APSA-IPSO pediatric surgical oncology forum will take place on Saturday, May 19 and the morning of Sunday, May 20. Sessions will emphasize panel discussion rather than didactics and try to touch on controversial aspects and differences in approaches between IPSO and APSA. Learn more, including the Symposium topics.
Education Day
The APSA-IPSO Symposium will start off the day, followed by billing and coding (joint session with the American Pediatric Surgical Managers Association), a basic science update, and the Jay and Margie Grosfeld Lecture.
