Dear colleagues, 
 
I wanted to warmly invite you to RISEUK26, the largest multi-specialty Surgical Robotics & Innovation conference in the UK, with representation from all 4 Royal College of Surgeons. 
 
As we've been building the programme for RISEUK26, one area we've been particularly excited about is the strength of the Head & Neck Robotics faculty.
 
We're delighted to be welcoming Mr Asit Arora, who will be delivering a keynote entitled: "Beyond the Jaw: How Transoral Robotics Is Rewriting Head and Neck Cancer Surgery"
 
Alongside him, Professor Bindy Sahota will be delivering a keynote entitled:
 
Beyond the Console: Building the Teams, Training and Pathways That Make TORS Work
 
Rather than simply discussing robotic technology itself, they'll be exploring what it actually takes to build a successful robotic head and neck service from training and credentialling to multidisciplinary working and service implementation.
 
Alongside this, you'll have the opportunity to hear from global pioneers and heavyweights in multiple surgical specialties, including Professor Prokar Dasgupta OBE, who will also be taking part in a live international telesurgery demonstration, streamed live between Birmingham and an international surgical team.
 
Across the two days you'll also have the opportunity to:
 
• Experience hands-on robotic surgical platforms
• Explore how AI is changing surgical practice
• Discover XR technologies transforming surgical education
• Meet over 20 exhibitors showcasing the latest innovations in surgical technology
 
What I particularly like about RISEUK26 is that it isn't simply about showcasing technology. It's about understanding how innovation can be introduced safely, responsibly and in a way that genuinely improves patient care.
If that's something you're interested in, I think you'd find the programme incredibly valuable.

If you feel colleagues within your department or wider MDT would also benefit, I'd be very grateful if you would consider sharing this invitation with them.
 
I hope we'll have the opportunity to 
 
 

Kind regards
