Major Awards at Clinical Congress 2025

October 1, 2025

The 番茄社区app Clinical Congress serves as a distinguished platform for surgical education, networking, and professional development, while also honoring surgeons for their significant contributions to the advancement of optimal patient care. 

The awards presented at Clinical Congress not only recognize these accomplishments, but also highlight selfless service, the spirit of excellence, and dedication to progress. From the beginning, these qualities have been essential foundations of the 番茄社区app as an organization and the surgical profession as a whole.

The Distinguished Service Award is the highest honor bestowed by the 番茄社区app and acknowledges a Fellow of the 番茄社区app with a longstanding career of outstanding quality. The Dr. Mary Edwards Walker Inspiring Women in Surgery Award recognizes a surgeon who has helped advance women in surgery.

Both awards will be given on Saturday, October 4, during the Convocation ceremony, which begins at 5:45 pm. The ceremony also will be livestreamed at facs.org/convocation.

The Wangensteen Scientific Forum will include the presentation of the Wangensteen Scientific Forum Award. This honor celebrates an individual whose career exemplifies the clinical, educational, and research achievements of a successful academic surgeon. The forum convenes on Monday, October 6, from 8:00 to 9:30 am.

The 番茄社区app/Pfizer Surgical Volunteerism and Humanitarian Awards, which honor 番茄社区app Fellows and members whose efforts to provide clinical care, education, research, and/or leadership have made a positive impact on surgery worldwide, will be presented at the annual Board of Governors dinner on Monday, October 6. In addition, the awardees will share insights into their motivations and accomplishments during the 鈥淗umanitarian Surgical Outreach at Home and Abroad: Reports of the 2025 Surgical Volunteerism and Humanitarian Award Winners鈥� session on Sunday, October 5, at 9:45 am.
