Established in 2008, Ircad Taiwan has trained more than 5000 surgeons worldwide. Come join us and transform your surgical career!
Asian Institute of Telesurgery(AITS) was created in 2008 under the guidance of IRCAD/EITS, one of the most famous surgical training center in the world. This groundbreaking alliance brings the 800 international experts affiliated with IRCAD/EITS to closer proximity of Asian surgeons, providing identical level of excellence in education while saving time and money in traveling. Since our inauguration in 2008, more than 4000 surgeons from more than 50 countries have benefitted from our training programs.
The success of AITS is mainly due to the cooperation between two charismatic man, Professor Jacques Marescaux, and Professor Min-Ho Huang, President of ShowChwan Healthcare systems, one of the largest private hospital chains in Taiwan. Through close collaboration of these visionary leaders, the quality of the courses are maintained at identical levels with those in EITS/IRCAD.
Our center is modeled after that of EITS/IRCAD, while offering larger space in the auditorium and the animal lab to provide more working spaces during activities.

Through five years, we have successfully organized the same variety of programs(including General surgery, urology, gynecology, arthroscopic surgery, bariatric and metabolic surgery, endocrine surgery, neurosurgery, etc) as that in the original Strasbourg center, while creating new ones through our joint efforts.(Thoracic, Hepatobiliary, Upper GI surgery). The joint efforts not only enhanced surgical training in Asian, but also in return enriched those of the mother institute in France.
