Programme
Abstracts have been submitted and planning is well underway for our 70th Anniversary Congress. We really do have a excellent programme lined up this year with symposia covering BAPS History, Innovation in Paediatric Surgery, Legal & Ethics, Urology, a Research Forum and invited lecturers including Paul Losty (Liverpool), Oliver Muensterer (Munich) and Mohan Gundeti (Chicago). This year the Special Interest Group sessions (BAPS-PCG, BAPS-CHUGS, BAPS-TAG, BAPS-ONC & BAPS-Trauma) will be integrated within the programme so I would encourage members to look at securing study leave to attend the full four days of the congress in order to get the most out of the programme.
