UpSurgeOn: scientific mindset and artistic soul
Neurosurgeons, developers, digital artists, modellers: we decided to aim for the future of surgical training
The way surgeons are trained needs a radical change. Thousands of lives depend on this. The cadaver-free training represents a dramatic change on a global level – scientific literature is confirming this.
UpSurgeOn decided to lead this change.
Mission
Fill the gap between theory and practice in surgery
We believe in psychomotor skill augmentation. Our mission is to save millions of live, training more skilled neurosurgions across the globe. We aim to improve learning curves, expediting mastery, whilst reducing the costs of training.
Vision
Reach a universal framework for all surgeries
We envisioned a new medicine: a new generation of highly trained surgeons, certified through simulation-based technologies. This is a scientific, cultural and humanitarian revolution.
The values: beyond the evolution of surgery, to the evolution of oneself.
Grants & Awards
Surgery is not only about cutting, dissecting or drilling. We need to come back to foundation values. We need to rediscover the meaning of our profession.
This is UpSurgeOn
Passion to treat.
Passion to innovate.
Love for patient, ethical and intellectual commitment, sacrifice for a precious good such as life.
Today you are on this path – we know this because we come from the same world.
Now we want to find new ways to increase your excellence and make your skills extraordinary.
Your patients will benefit from your mental, manual but also spiritual evolution.
We know you need a powerful daily-bases mental and manual training.
What can help you through accuracy and accessible technologies.
The integration between physical and digital technologies is the fire which brought UpSurgeOn to invent the Academy, a system to guide the training of students and postgraduates with new methodologies.
Patient benefit
Your patients will benefit from your mental, manual but also spiritual evolution
Training
Daily mental and manual training thanks to the accuracy and accessible technology
Hybrid approach
The integration between physical and digital technologies was the fire which started UpSurgeOn
The problem
Training in neurosurgery is a healthcare emergency
Steep learning curves, expensive programs, no simulation-based certifications, limited access to cadaveric dissection.
More than 5 million of cases not-treated each year globally
due to the absence of trained surgeons.
The impact
€ 1 MLN
Average cost per trainee for hospitals
5 MLN
Essential cases in LMICs go unmet each year
23,000
Neurosurgeons needed in the world
19%
Malpractice claims go to neurosurgery
The solution: UpSurgeOn, not only neurosurgery
UpSurgeOn Academy is made by neurosurgeons for neurosurgeons: we invented a scientific method to augment cognitive and psychomotor skills.
It is a hi-tech sequence of virtual and physical technologies designed for Mental and Manual training. The foundation of everything is a novel process of Scientific 3D Modelling, resulting in the most accurate surgical scenarios and tools. The same technologies will be soon available for spine surgery, ENT, maxillo-facial surgery, general surgery and many others. We are already working to apply same method to other surgical disciplines.
