IAPSCON 2026-Medical Conference@Lalit Ashok:24-27 Sep 2026

 

Welcome to IAPSCON 2026:

24-27 Sep 2026@Lalit Ashok in Namma Bengaluru

Welcome to IAPSCON 2026, where the rhythm of pediatric surgery finds new harmony in Bengaluru — the city where innovation meets timeless charm.

This year’s conference opens with the overture of an interactive live CME, offering a glimpse into future-ready surgical techniques and thought-provoking exchanges. The first movement unfolds with high-impact academic sessions designed to ignite curiosity and challenge conventions.

As the tempo builds, the second movement brings the vibrant energy of young minds — fresh ideas, perspectives, and bold questions redefining what we thought we knew.

And then, the crescendo — a celebration of collaboration, connection, and camaraderie — culminating in the General Body Meeting, where shared voices guide the path forward, followed by a grand evening of music, fellowship, and celebration. It’s where science meets spirit in the true tradition of IAPSCON.

All this and more, set against the backdrop of Bengaluru, a city that beautifully embodies our 2026 theme: “Innovation, Equity, and Compassion in Pediatric Surgical Care.”
