NESS Meeting Update
Due to the uncertainty surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic and the necessity of creating the safest learning experience, this year’s NESS Annual Meeting program that was to take place in person October 23-25, 2020, at Gurney’s Newport in Rhode Island, will now be held virtually. In making this decision, the New England Surgical Society considered the subsequent domino effects of unpredictable surges, institutional travel bans/funding restrictions, social distancing’s effects on venue capacities, and the continuing ramp-up of elective surgeries. With the paramount importance of the health and well-being of members, attendees, faculty, patients, staff, and other stakeholders, the Annual Meeting format undeniably had to change. Moreover, making this decision early affords the NESS the time to execute a high-quality virtual meeting. It is currently anticipated that the virtual meeting will occur over a portion of the original dates of October 23-25, 2020.
In the coming weeks you will receive additional information on the meeting, including registration and programmatic details. The NESS is excited to offer this virtual meeting and hopes you will be able to join us. Thank you for your understanding. View more information and Frequently Asked Questions.
