NYU Langone’s Department of Surgery sponsors and participates in a variety of professional educational opportunities both through our department and NYU Grossman School of Medicine’s continuing medical education (CME) programs.

All of our courses are taught by leaders in surgery and emphasize the latest technologies, procedures, and research findings to promote the highest standards of patient care. Our activities feature interactive teaching techniques, case-based education, hands-on simulation, reflective exercises, and self-assessments.

Our department’s monthly grand rounds and weekly mortality and morbidity (M&M) lecture allow our faculty, fellows, residents, advanced practice providers, and medical students to learn about timely topics in surgery.
