Structured surgical training based on evidence

Surgical Science provide structured surgical training based on evidence

Surgical Science has been committed to providing structured surgical training, in laparoscopy and robotics, for many years and maintains an evidence-based approach to simulation training.

Our simulators are scientifically validated, and studies have proven that our simulators work and that VR skills successfully transfer to the OR.^{1, 2}

We have applied these studies to create our own validated curricula, the LapSim Certification Program™

Read our case study with Dr. Hulda Einarsdottir, the Director of Surgical Simulation at Yale University School of Medicine, and see how she made simulation training an integral part of her surgical curriculum.
