The Society of Laparoendoscopic Surgeons (SLS) Special Interest Group (SIG) Committees support the organization's educational mission. Members of the committees present the popular laparoscopy updates at SLS's Annual Meeting and Endo Expo, taking an important leadership role in preparing physicians for the future.

The committees "meet" and communicate online via email throughout the year. At the members' convenience, they have the opportunity to communicate with colleagues from all over the world who share the same professional interests.

Participation on the SIG Committees is open to SLS members. If you are interested in joining a committee, click here to complete our online form.  If you would like to read the SIG Committee Guidelines, click here.
