@WorldJSurg I agree with Prof. Hardcastle. There's no single most pressing issue. All 4 listed issues are interconnected and can not/should not be addressed in isolation. Global surgical care could be addressed in a modular manner by bringing together the key issues and addressing them.
Publication Alert!!π¨ Past GICS Chair @eaameh and team demonstrate the cost-effectiveness of pediatric surgical interventions and OR installation. Cheers to this amazing work! @avacyap@KidsOperating#globalsurgery#disparities

"It's transforming the learning experience for paediatric surgical trainees in Africa." π
Dr. @jseyiolajide is a consultant paediatric surgeon in Nigeria & one of the most prolific trainers on PAPSEP, generously sharing her expertise to the next generation of life-savers in Africa. π³π¬
The importance of access to quality education for trainee surgeons? π₯
"It's crucial. A #surgeon in training needs quality education to prepare them for their career. This is even more important in #LMICs, where access to ongoing mentoring after graduating can be limited."
PAPSEP's impact... π
"It's transformational. It's enhancing the way trainees process information and instruction."
What motivates you to engage?
"I have a lifelong desire for high quality education & well-trained surgeons. PAPSEP motivates us trainers to continuously improve the delivery of information to trainees. It's strengthening competence in global paediatric surgery." πͺ
The 2024 @JHGlobalSurgery Symposium will occur on April 6, 2024 (in person w/ virtual options for the plenary talks)! Guest speakers include Kofi Boahene (Hopkins), Emmanuel Ameh (National Hospital, Abuja, Nigeria), and Sherry Wren (Stanford). RSVP here:
