On behalf of the Colorectal Surgical Society of

Australia and New Zealand, General Surgeons Australia,

and the Organising Committees, it is with pleasure

that we invite you to join us for the 2019 GSA ASM in

conjunction with the CSSANZ SPRING COLORECTAL

MEETING, taking place from 24-27 October, 2019, at

the Hotel Grand Chancellor, Hobart.

Focusing on ‘MINIMALLY INVASIVE SURGERY ’, the two

Scientific Programs will explore advanced laparoscopic,

endoscopic, and robotic techniques, presented via

compelling lectures, surgical video presentations, and

lively discussions and debate, by world-renowned

experts from across Australia and internationally

including: Prof Luigi Boni, Prof Bernard Dallemagne,

Miss Nicola Fearnhead, Dr Marcos Michelotti, Dr

Garth Jacobsen, Dr Neil Hyman, and Mr Janindra

Warusavitarne.

The importance of the two programs will be offset

by social events designed to showcase renowned

Tasmanian produce: the CSSANZ Colorectal Dinner and

Trainees’ Dinner on the Thursday; Combined Welcome

Reception on the Friday; and finishing off with the Social

Spectacular on the Saturday.

We look forward to welcoming you to beautiful Hobart

this October.
