A special thank you to our Keynote Speakers, Professor Shafi Ahmed and Professor Helen Heneghan for their inspiring and thought-provoking presentations. Their expertise and insights were a highlight of this year’s programme and provided an excellent foundation for discussion and reflection.
We are grateful to the Session Chairs, Surgeons, Surgical Trainees, Postgraduate Researchers and Medical Students who presented their research studies. The quality, originality and clinical relevance of the work shared reflected the very best of surgical research and education in Ireland and beyond.
It was fantastic to showcase the Sentire Console at the first Irish telesurgery workshop, in collaboration with the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland and Cornerstone Robotics UK. Thank you to everyone involved in making it happen.
We would like to extend our sincere thanks to our Industry Partners for their valued support and involvement throughout the Symposium. Their presence provided an invaluable opportunity to showcase innovation, share expertise and foster meaningful connections with our surgical community. We greatly appreciate their continued partnership and support in helping us deliver an engaging and exciting Symposium.
Finally, a heartfelt thank you to every delegate who attended and contributed to the quality of discussion, learning and collaboration throughout the event. Your expertise, enthusiasm and shared commitment to surgical research, education and innovation made the 51st Sir Peter Freyer Surgical Symposium 2026 a truly memorable success.
