FREE Excursion - FuseTec, Advanced Surgical Training Clinic

Fusetec, Advanced Surgical Training Clinic is a 25x bed surgical training clinic for residents and surgeons to rehearse complex surgical procedures, and continually upskill. Traditional surgical training has been the dissections of cadavers and living people. The clinic is a world first cadaver free surgical training environment, where surgeons can train without being exposed to potential harmful bacteria. The clinic demonstrates a new disruptive surgical training market where surgical training is risk free for all stakeholders.

Please note that this is a SASTA members only event.

This excursion was run as a part of CONASTA 70, you can check out some attendee comments below:

  • 3D printed body parts for surgical training wow. What an entrepreneur, what out of the box thinker.
  • Amazing! FUSETEC is unbelievable! This was an excellent way to showcase the very best in the sciences and how they are integral to human endeavour. I have renewed hope for the ingenuity of people to make a real difference in the world. Who would have thought little old Adelaide is at the "cutting edge".
  • Fusetec was absolutely amazing! Such an impressive organisation.
  • So interesting! I loved attending this workshop!
