With in-person medical conferences curtailed during the Covid-19 pandemic, physicians across specialties have struggled to continue the development and training they’ve historically relied on these meetings for. Procedural subspecialists such as surgeons, gastroenterologists, and cardiologists in particular have long depended on live courses that use cadavers or simulation exercises to maintain their skills and to learn new techniques. Curtailed as well has been the personal and professional satisfaction of interacting with colleagues at these events, and the face-to-face discussions that lead to new research and academic collaborations.
