The InciSioN Global Surgery Symposium (IGSS) 2025 invites you to submit an abstract and present your research to a global audience of experts, practitioners, and advocates. This year’s theme highlights the complexity of global surgery—extending beyond the operating room into policy, advocacy, public health, and innovation.
Both oral and poster presentations will be featured, and top presentations will be recognized with awards. The symposium will be hybrid, allowing participation both in person and virtually.
All accepted abstracts for IGSS 2025 will be included in the official abstract booklet. The booklet will be published digitally on JOGS.one and available to conference attendees and the broader research community.
