Dear Friends,
It is my great pleasure to invite you to join the 11th worldwide meeting of Clinical Robotic Surgery Association (CRSA) that will be held on Nov 1-2, 2019 in Durham, NC, USA.
The meeting is being hosted by the Department of Surgery, Duke University Medical Center in conjunction with CRSA and promises to bring national and international experts in the field of robotics to share their experiences in multiple surgical disciplines.
We hope to add scientists and engineers to this meeting so we may advance the field together.
Durham, known as the City of Medicine, has excellent medical facilities and a wonderful University. It is easy to get to from Europe, Asia, and also Latin America and the Caribbean. through nonstop flights.
The domestic connections are also excellent from all major cities in the United States.
