The hub will focus on trials of new technologies, aimed at improving treatment options, including cloud enablement in endoscopy suites. 

Physicians studying in the Rush fellowship program will have the opportunity to study new treatments and work with top researchers at Medtronic. 

“The educational opportunities for our fellows at RUSH have always been plentiful, but including members of Medtronic in our training will further set our program apart,” Michael Brown, MD, director of the gastroenterology and hepatology fellowship program at RUSH, said in a Sept. 23 press release. “Fellows will have the ability to hear and learn from two leading institutions all in one place.”

At the Becker's 23rd Annual Spine, Orthopedic and Pain Management-Driven ASC + The Future of Spine Conference, taking place June 11-13 in Chicago, spine surgeons, orthopedic leaders and ASC executives will come together to explore minimally invasive techniques, ASC growth strategies and innovations shaping the future of outpatient spine care.
