I am immensely grateful for the invaluable opportunity to partake in the Travelling Fellowship program, affording me the privilege to visit Professor Bemelman and his esteemed team. The experience at the globally renowned Colorectal Unit surpassed even my lofty expectations. Allow me to delineate my journey in a structured manner:

On this the 30th year of the existence of our Society, it is an honour and pleasure to welcome our members to the first in-person Stand-Alone meeting since 2018!

We must thank the Vineyard for extending our deposit until now.

What a pleasure to be able to attend a meeting without masks and distancing or sitting alone in front of the computer in a virtual meeting. The success of continued learning is partly dependant on social interaction and networking, two important aspects that were forced to be abandoned in the recent past.
BARIAlink – created in 2016 by Dr. Bruno Dillemans – is a web-based knowledge base and participation network of bariatric and metabolic surgery specialists from all over the globe…
The primary aim of BARIAlink is to share and discuss at a highly professional level the challenges faced by surgeons in complex cases, innovative surgical procedures and new approaches to bariatric surgery, in order to raise the level of surgical excellence in this field.
Bariatric Surgery is a relatively new surgical subdiscipline, with scientific interest in the subject rapidly increasing, as well as the number of surgeries being performed worldwide.
An unfortunate side effect of this rapid evolution is the ever-changing nature of the discipline. Preferred bariatric procedures have quickly changed, and training has not always been carried out for long enough, or to a high enough standard for surgeons entering this appealing new domain.
As such, a broad spectrum of corrective-surgery including reversals, revisions and conversions has become necessary, but they are technically more challenging and are accompanied with a higher morbidity and mortality.
In order to improve the knowledge and skills to deal with these complex cases, BARIAlink was born and officially registered as a foundation in June 2017.
BARIAlink hosts regular academies and webinars in the field of bariatric surgery. Visit the upcoming events page for a schedule of future events
