IRCAD’s main focus has always been to develop less invasive surgery techniques through research led by the IRCAD research and development team in collaboration with IRCAD surgeons and share those techniques at an international level via training courses.
Always driven by innovation, IRCAD embraced digital technology very early on with the creation in 2000 of WebSurg- IRCAD’s free online university. Through its Website, IRCAD broadcast courses regularly and has now over 404,844 members from around the world.
