Trusted Surgery brings together leading researchers, clinicians, and system thinkers to address a central question: how do we design surgical systems that are not only high-performing, but consistently reliable and trustful?

In an era where operating rooms are increasingly shaped by advanced technologies, including robotics and data-driven decision support, the human factors of teamwork, communication, and accountability become even more critical.

This conference explores the intersection of technical excellence and collective performance, examining how trust is built, maintained, and sometimes lost across the entire surgical pathway.

By integrating perspectives from surgery, anesthesia, nursing, design, and data science, Trusted Surgery aims to move beyond isolated innovations toward a model of care in which safety, precision, and collaboration are systematically aligned.
