Abstract

The escalating cost of attending a surgical conference by the postgraduate trainee is proving to be a bane for many with the impending financial implications which are slowly becoming detrimental and challenging. There is an urgent need for cost-cutting and making these surgical conferences economical so that the young generation of surgeons can learn the latest from their peers and get the opportunity to interact with the topmost professionals in the specialty. The conferences should attract surgeons across without feeling the pinch in the pocket by making it hybrid and providing support to postgraduates, especially those from economically poor background.
