Overview
The ACS Clinical Congress 2025 is the premier annual educational meeting for surgeons, often described as the “Super Bowl of Surgery.” Held in Chicago, the 2025 edition emphasized the integration of rapidly evolving technologies—particularly Artificial Intelligence (AI) and robotics—into modern surgical practice.
The congress adopted a hybrid format, allowing in-person participation at McCormick Place alongside a comprehensive virtual platform for global access. The program is recognized for combining high-level scientific research presented in the Scientific Forum with practical, skills-based training sessions.
