The Lepic Lab, the Laboratory for Teaching, Research, and Innovation in Surgery at the Hospital das Clínicas da Faculdade de Medicina da USP, is your early access to tomorrow's operating room.
Here, minimally invasive surgery ceases to be a distant concept and becomes a practical experience. Students put their hands dirty in our cutting-edge simulators, the White Boxes, and discover the movements and precision that define
laparoscopic surgery.
In this immersion, students will be able to:
- Unravel the technique: Do coordination exercises in the White Boxes and experience in practice the challenges and logic behind each movement.
- Talk to those who do it: Exchange ideas with our team, understand the routine, and see why laboratory training is a game-changer in a surgeon's career.
- Explore the innovation center: Get to know the environment and technology of a modern laboratory up close, inside the largest hospital complex in Latin America.
- Learn from the best: Watch exclusive content that shows the real application of everything you're going to experience.
More than a visit, this is your first step in mastering the tools that are shaping medicine.
A unique experience to combine learning, real experimentation and inspiration for the challenges of your future profession.
