ASGBI’S 2014 INTERNATIONAL SURGICAL
CONGRESS WILL BE ‘PAPERLESS’!
We are proud to announce that our 2014 Congress will be almost completely devoid of any paper! This is partly
as a result of our desire to be ‘green’, but also because we recognise that this is a sensible direction of travel as
we embrace the technological age. One day soon, all conferences will be delivered this way…
How will it work?
An independent developer, SpotMe, are providing the platform for
the ASGBI Congress app. You will be provided with a link where you
can download the app before the Congress starts.
In the meantime, you can check whether your existing device will be suitable by following the Apple and Android
corresponding links below:
Apple: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/spotme-mobile-event-app/id739869655?mt=8
Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.spotme.android&hl=en
If you do not have your own device, an iPad, preloaded with the app and tailored for your personal use, will be
made available for you when you arrive. A fee of £25 will be charged for however long you are at the Congress.
(Our overall registration fees are lower this year, so even if you decide to pay the extra £25, the fees will still be
less than in 2013.) Please note that it will not be possible to maximise your attendance at the Congress
without a compatible device (either your own, or rented onsite) as there will be no printed final Programme,
information or instructions in paper form.
If you are thinking about purchasing a tablet (iPad or android equivalent), this might be the time to take the plunge
and buy one before the Congress begins! Please note that the Congress app will also work on most smartphones.
However, the size and resolution may not be clear enough for you to benefit from the functionality.
What facilities, documentation and benefits will be available via my device?
The app will provide access to all the programme information, abstracts, speaker profiles, delegate lists and social
programme details. You will also be able to use it to make your own itinerary, take part in Q&As and polls during
the sessions, send messages to other delegates, make notes, arrange to meet up with individuals, search for topics
or presenters, view the posters and store information specific to your needs. We believe this will be the most
powerful interactive tool yet seen at any Congress and certainly the first in the UK!
There will also be a tutorial made
available to delegates to ensure that
everyone is able to use the technology
with ease.
What do I need to do now?
You need to register for the 2014
ASGBI International Surgical Congress!
Make sure you have a compatible
device, or select the £25 rental of an
iPad upon registration, which will be
yours for the duration of the Congress.
If you rent an iPad, it will be
maintained and charged for you by
SpotMe onsite. We look forward to
seeing you there!

PROVISIONAL PROGRAMME AND REGISTRATION FORM
INTERNATIONAL SURGICAL CONGRESS
1
I am very much looking forward to welcoming you to this year’s ASGBI
International Surgical Congress in Harrogate, entitled “Education and
Innovation”. The 2014 Congress is being held at the Harrogate International Centre
(HIC) from Wednesday 30th April to Friday 2nd May. Situated in the heart of the
UK, Harrogate is a picturesque spa town full of history and character and it has
grown to be one of the best events industry destinations in the country. The HIC is
one of the largest purpose-built event venues in the north, regularly welcoming
national conferences and exhibitions.
The week of the Congress will be bigger than ever in 2014. Not only have we
received a record number of abstracts (1,311 in total), but the Association is pleased
to be hosting a number of parallel events. The first of these is the biennial
International Conference on Surgical Education and Training (ICOSET), taking place on Tuesday 29th
and Wednesday 30thApril. This effectively makes the 2014 Congress a combined four-day event, and we
encourage you to take advantage of this extended meeting.
Now in its fourth year, we are pleased to welcome back the annual Association of Trauma & Military Surgery
(ATMS) Conference, which will run on Wednesday 30th April. This meeting will have its own specific
programme, although ASGBI delegates will be welcome to attend these sessions if they so wish, and vice versa.
Harrogate, 29th April to 2nd May 2014
INTERNATIONAL SURGICAL CONGRESS: EDUCATION & INNOVATION
Welcome from the ASGBI President
Additionally, the Association of Surgeons in Primary Care (ASPC) will be holding a Community Service
workshop on Thursday 1st May and the Surgical Outcomes Club of Great Britain and Ireland (SOC-GBI)
will be hosting several workshops, followed by their first AGM, on Wednesday morning. To add to this
exciting programme, the Association is pleased to be including a symposium entitled “The Surgeon and the
Primary/Secondary Care Interface” on Friday morning. This is being run in partnership with the Royal
College of General Practitioners (RCGP) and we are delighted that the RCGP President, Professor Mike
Pringle, will be speaking in this session.
As you will see from the provisional Scientific Programme Grid contained in this booklet, preparations by
the Association’s Scientific Committee are well advanced and should maintain the long-standing tradition
of promoting research, education, fellowship and intellectual stimulation. As the title of the Congress
suggests, the various symposia in 2014 will revolve around developments in surgical education and
innovation. We will be showcasing for you the latest in surgical technology, with the help of our brand new
‘Innovation and Simulation Zone’.
The ‘Zone’ will replace the traditional Industry Exhibition in 2014. Here, delegates will have the chance to
get interactive with the latest surgical simulation equipment, brought along by companies who specialise in
this area. These educational experiences will fit perfectly with the theme of the meeting, which will
continue throughout workshops, poster presentations ample debates and discussions.
Following the extremely positive delegate feedback from previous Congresses, we have tried to balance the
variety of surgical topics with important plenary sessions, including a Motivational Lecture by Professor Atul
Gawande, Chairman of the Lifebox Foundation Board. There will be the usual Royal College Lectures plus a
contribution from the American College of Surgeons. We will again be holding a Meet the Surgical Experts
session and I advise you to turn up early for this, as it is always extremely popular and well-attended.
As mentioned above, the Association has been extremely pleased with the amount of abstracts submitted
this year; the many Short Paper sessions, e-poster presentations, and the John Wiley & Sons Ltd/BJS Audio
Visual Prize will all be well represented.
This year, following the success of 2013’s Ceilidh dinner dance, we will be holding a cabaret-style social
evening on Thursday 1st May, in the Royal Hall at the HIC. This event will follow a brief prize session giving
which is scheduled to begin at 5.30pm. For £25, this event includes a three-course meal and a glass of
sparkling wine, and you can book your place on the Congress website, www.asgbi.org.uk/harrogate2014. I
hope you will support this important social event which, as well as being great fun, also gives you the
opportunity to meet other delegates.
Last year, 1,097 medically-qualified surgical delegates attended our event, making ASGBI’s International
Surgical Congress one of the largest surgical meetings on this side of the Atlantic. I hope you will contribute to
further this success in 2014 by bringing your colleagues, junior staff, nurses and partners to this superb venue.
I look forward to seeing you in Harrogate in April/May, and anticipate a lively, entertaining and stimulating
Congress... and don’t forget to bring your iPad or android tablet as, this year, we have gone completely
paperless!!

The biennial International Conference on Surgical Education and Training
(ICOSET) is this year being held back-to-back with the ASGBI Congress in
Harrogate, from Tuesday 29th to Wednesday 30th April 2014.
I am looking forward to welcoming you to the fourth ICOSET, following on from
successful meetings in Melbourne, Dublin and Ottawa. Surgical education and training
is changing for both junior and senior surgeons because of many factors, including a
focus on safety and outcomes, the imposition of duty hours’ regulations, the
introduction of simulation and new interventional techniques, as well as refinements in
training and assessment methodologies. These themes will be discussed at Harrogate
in a mixture of workshops, debates and symposia, led by educators of international repute. There will also
be sessions for free papers, e-posters and a ‘Dragons Den’ session for our Innovations in Surgical Education
and Training Prize. Highlights of the conference include symposia on training within duty hours restrictions,
alternative training paradigms from sport, space and the military, integration of simulation into the surgical
curriculum and mentoring. The ‘State of the Art Lecture’ will be given by Professor Eduardo Salas on the
subject of team training, in conjunction with the Association of Trauma & Military Surgeons. Professor John
Collins will deliver the ‘Halstead Lecture’ on the Future of Surgical Training and this will be followed by a
plenary session with ASGBI on the Shape of Training Review, led by Professor David Greenaway.
The ICOSET Organising Committee looks forward to seeing you in Harrogate, at what promises to be an
informative and exciting conference.
Jonathan Beard
Chairman, ICOSET Organising Committee
Welcome from ATMS
On behalf of The Association of Trauma & Military Surgery, I am looking forward to
welcoming you to this year’s Trauma & Military Surgery Conference in Harrogate,
taking place on Wednesday 30th April 2014.
We wish to thank Professor Nicholas Gair and all his ASGBI colleagues, as we once
again hold our meeting in parallel with their International Surgical Congress. We also
offer a special vote of thanks to the Royal British Legion, whose generous financial
support enables us to attract the highest possible calibre of distinguished speakers.
To deliver our keynote Guthrie Lecture, we will be welcoming Dr David Hoyt,
Executive Director of the American College of Surgeons. Tying in with the ‘Education
and Innovation’ theme, and alongside our friends at ICOSET, we will be hosting a session on trauma
preparedness for military surgeons, with perspectives from both sides of the Atlantic. There is also a session
focusing on the vexed problem of violence against women. We have assembled a group of international
speakers to deliver an overview of all challenges facing those caring for women subjected to violence at
home and in the setting of war and conflict.
A conference highlight will be the annual dinner on Wednesday night and, this year, we will be dining at
the iconic Sun Pavilion in Harrogate; we encourage all delegates to come along with their partners/friends.
In the centenary year of the outbreak of the First World War, trauma care in both the civilian and
uniformed military arenas couldn’t be more relevant. We welcome you to the 2014 ATMS Conference
and hope that the academic forum provided will allow us to share advances in trauma care across the full
spectrum and enable us to build networks for collaboration and co-operation for the future.

CATERING AT THE 2014 ASGBI CONGRESS
Over the last few years, catering has been one of the biggest issues at the ASGBI Congress.
When ASGBI provided free lunches for delegates, we received a large number of complaints
about the quality of food and the lack of choice available. As each Congress venue has a
contracted caterer, there is unfortunately no option for ASGBI to bring in an outside company.
Therefore, in 2013, we increased the membership discount on registration fees by a further 5%
and asked delegates to pay for their own lunch. There were food “pods” located around the
venue serving a wide variety of food and a meal deal at each outlet cost between £5 and £7.
Unfortunately, this also resulted in a small number of complaints, so it seems that neither
option will suit everybody. In 2014, we have again increased the member discount on
registration fees to 25%, and will be asking delegates, once again, to pay for their own lunch,
which is common practice at many large meetings. We will provide the same low-cost food
options in Harrogate with the same variety of outlets.

TRAVELLING FELLOWSHIP
The prestigious Moynihan Travelling Fellowship, up to the value of £5,000, is available annually by open competition to
Specialist Registrars towards the end of higher surgical training or Consultants within five years of appointment at the closing
date for this application. The Fellowship is intended to enable the successful candidate to broaden their education and to
present and discuss their contribution to British and Irish surgery overseas. It is not appropriate, however, that the award be
used as part-funding for an off-service year of training.
Candidates must be residents of the United Kingdom or the Republic of Ireland but need not be either Fellows or Affiliate
Fellows of the Association; however they should be engaged in general surgery or in one of its specialties. A full Curriculum
Vitae should be submitted giving details of all past and present appointments and publications, together with a detailed
account of the proposed programme of travel, costs involved and objectives to be achieved during the Fellowship.
Short-listed candidates will be invited to attend for interview by the Association’s Scientific Committee. The Committee will
pay particular attention to originality, scope and feasibility of the proposed itinerary. The successful candidate will be
expected to act as an ambassador for British and Irish Surgery and should be fully acquainted with the aims and objectives
of the Association of Surgeons of Great Britain and Ireland and its role in surgery.
After the Fellowship, the successful candidate will be required to provide a written report of their Fellowship for inclusion in
the Association’s Journal, and to address a future ASGBI International Surgical Congress. A critical appraisal of the Centres
visited, together with an assessment of how the experience will enhance future personal and professional development,
should form the basis of the report.
Applications should be submitted online at www.asgbi.org.uk by the closing date of Friday 3rd October 2014.
