2019 Academy events

 

Frankenman understand the importance of Professional Clinical Education to ensure safe and appropriate usage of our devices, as well as partner with clinicians in the development of surgical skills and new procedures. With this in mind, in 2016, we have developed the Frankenman Academy.

 

There are two main facets to the Frankenman Academy


  1. Connecting Surgery Internationally, by partnering with World Class Centres of Excellence, and World Class faculty, to deliver workshops to surgeons in a clinical setting. These events include such aspects as, didactic training hands-on skill development, cadaveric labs, and observational experience.

  2. Union Med Training Centre – Suzhou China – Frankenman are proud to be the first Chinese organisation to partner with local government in the development of the new Union Med Training Centre, which was officially opened in 2017. This state of the art facility allows us to run hands-on wet labs for surgical training.
