This fellowship is more than just an observational experience. Selected fellows will be actively involved in a hands-on research project centered around robotic surgery and outcome analysis, using robust datasets from the ESTS Robotic Surgery Database. It’s an ideal platform for early-career thoracic surgeons to build expertise in minimally invasive surgical techniques and contribute to improving patient outcomes through data-driven research.
The ultimate goal of this initiative is not just training, but transformation. Upon completion of the fellowship in May 2026, participants are expected to return to their home institutions and champion the development and expansion of robotic surgery programs, fostering innovation in thoracic surgery around the globe.
Fellowship Grant Details
- Total Grant Amount: CHF 18,000
(Includes salary, 10% institutional overhead, research project costs, and travel reimbursement) - Fellowship Duration: 3 months
