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.
