L’inauguration officielle de l’IRCAD North America s’est tenue la semaine dernière à Charlotte, réunissant plus de 400 invités venus du monde entier.
Si la construction a débuté en 2023, l’histoire remonte bien plus loin, à une rencontre entre le Professeur Jacques Marescaux et le Dr Dionisios Vrochides, initiée par le Professeur Nicolas Demartines. Le projet a pris forme grâce au soutien déterminant d’Advocate Health, avec notamment la visite à Strasbourg du Dr Rasu Shrestha, Executive Vice President, et de Gene Woods, Chief Executive Officer.
L’institut s’intègre au sein de The Pearl, un projet visionnaire visant à devenir le premier corridor mondial dédié aux technologies médicales. Cet écosystème innovant rassemble une faculté de médecine, des infrastructures de formation chirurgicale de pointe, des laboratoires de recherche avancée et des espaces collaboratifs favorisant l’innovation et l’échange multidisciplinaire.
Avec cette ouverture, l’IRCAD compte désormais neuf instituts dans le monde, un développement inimaginable il y a trente ans.
Please note that the IRCAD administrative board and staff are closely monitoring the evolving COVID-19 situation, in full compliance with all applicable laws and regulations in France. The health, safety, and well-being of our participants, experts and staff are our top priority!
Despite the current context, the IRCAD stands firmly by your side to help you acquire knowledge and skills. Come and join us !
We would like to draw your attention that the « Vaccine Pass » is now mandatory in France since end of January 2022 and replaces the former « Health Pass » to access places that are open to the public, such as cinemas, museums, cafés and restaurants, hotels as well as the IRCAD Institute which welcomes participants in the framework of its courses and seminars. Thus, a PCR test without vaccination is no longer sufficient to take part in our courses.
The vaccine pass includes a proof of the following (one of the 3 items is sufficient):

We very much hope to be able to count on your kind understanding of those rules which have been set by the French Government and which our Institute is required to apply
