AUGIS ACADEMY – INAUGURAL MEETING

Royal College of Surgeons of England | 15 June 2026
10:00 – 16:30

Shape the future of Upper GI research

The AUGIS Academy brings together the national research effort across OG, pancreatic and liver surgery. This inaugural meeting is a working session to define new multicentre studies and build collaborative research teams.

AUGIS has taken the difficult decision to cancel the inaugural AUGIS Academy meeting planned for 15 June at the Royal College of Surgeons of England.

This follows confirmation of resident doctor industrial action from 15–19 June, with expected service pressures and cancellation of study leave for many consultant colleagues. We do not feel it would be appropriate to proceed with a national meeting on that date.

The AUGIS Academy will feature prominently at the AUGIS Annual Scientific Meeting in Harrogate, 23–25 September 2026.

Thank you to all colleagues who registered or supported the programme. The Academy’s work to build a coordinated national platform for Upper GI research and education will continue.
