International School of Experimental Microsurgery – Cluj-Napoca, Romania, 23rd-30th of July 2017
The Romanian Students' Surgical Society (SSCR), Cluj-Napoca Branch, in collaboration with the “Iuliu Hațieganu” University of Medicine and Pharmacy Cluj-Napoca and the Center for Experimental Medicine and Practical Aptitudes, invites you between the 23rd and the 30th of July 2017, in Cluj-Napoca, Romania, to spend 6 unforgettable days learning about experimental microsurgery, making new friends and discovering a city with almost 2000 years of history!
Skip endless, tedious, theoretical classes; come and see the world from a different perspective: through the surgical microscope. This is the best chance for medical students to develop skills that are both useful and mandatory for a future resident/surgeon whose practice includes microsurgery or for someone who flirts with research that includes experimental surgery. This summer project offers a relaxed, yet professional working atmosphere, that will allow students to fulfill their educational goals but also to get to know other colleagues from international medical centers, to work as a team, to build long-lasting friendships, that will eventually lead to greater affiliation between universities and why not, to setting the foundation for future national and international projects.
Key points:
• hands on- microsurgical experience
• research steps - Why? When? How?
• more than 20 hours of working under surgical microscope
• best chance for students to try microsurgery
Subjects:
• Anatomy bases of animals used in experimental research;
• Anesthetic techniques;
• Drug administration methods;
• Biological sample collection;
• Preservation and monitoring of experimental animals;
• Ethics, Statistics and Research;
• Microsurgery basics:
o surgical microscope;
o special microsurgery instruments;
o microsurgical knots;
o microsurgical sutures.
• Vascular and nerve anastomosis on biological material.
Not to mention, all of the activities will take place in a professional and friendly environment!
