In international fellowsand residents conference in ISMICS2008, we are inspired to establish the Japanese Association of Young Cardiac Surgeon. Why? ・The postgraduate surgical education for cardiac surgeons in Japan seems to be less standardized. ・The education is more dependent on each institutional program. ISMICS2009 San Francisco
Japanese Association of Young Cardiac Surgeons was established in 2008 with the following aims and goals. 1. To promote education of young cardiac surgeons on surgical skill and knowledge. 2. To improve the quality of the training of young cardiac surgeons through the communication among young cardiac surgeons gathering from all over the country regardless of the program. 3. To enhance learning by organizing educational conferences and inviting lecturers who have leadership in surgical education. 4. To provide better patient care with the concert effort between the supervising surgeons and training surgeons. 5. To provide efficient patient care taking global view point into consideration. 6. To offer the opportunity of communication and interaction to Japanese young cardiac surgeons. ISMICS2009 San Francisco
