We bid you a cheerful welcome to our March 2014 Newsletter.

Soon to come on WeBSurg: a special educational "state-of-the-art" package focusing on the treatment of acute cholecystitis. Stay tuned! There will be more to come throughout the year.

This month, we are publishing 11 new videos featuring different surgical procedures in different specialties, 27 new lectures, one brand-new critical analysis in bariatric surgery, and new experts' opinions in laparoscopic gynecologic surgery.

We are also releasing a comprehensive package of 17 WINNERS PROJECT lectures about reproductive endoscopic surgery, called ECRES (European Certification for Reproductive Endoscopic Surgeons), a new certification program in reproductive endoscopy in cooperation with the ESHRE (European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology) who will deliver the Certification.

Yours faithfully,   Prof. Jacques Marescaux,   MD, FACS, Hon FRCS, Hon JSES   President of the IRCAD/EITS/EATS   WeBSurg Editor-in-Chief
