While Academics feel that they have a lot to teach regarding the science of colon and rectal surgery, there are still many private practice colon and rectal surgeons who run extremely successful practices while many academics struggle within the limitations of their institutions. This symposium is designed to help translate those techniques back from the community to academia.
