Welcome Message
Dear Colleagues, Scholars, and Friends,
It is my great pleasure to welcome you to the official website of the Taiwan Spine Society (TWSS).
Since its establishment, our society has been dedicated to advancing spinal surgery through clinical
excellence, scientific research, and educational development. We firmly believe that continuous
professional dialogue and international collaboration are the keys to improving patient care and
enhancing quality of life.
The upcoming ICL Cadaver Workshop, co-organized with CSRS-AP, is designed as a fundamental introductory course in cervical spine surgery. Its primary mission is to strengthen the knowledge and surgical foundation of young spine surgeons, as well as all physicians aspiring to specialize in the cervical field. We sincerely hope this program will inspire more colleagues to devote themselves to this specialty and eventually join the vibrant communities of TWSS and CSRS-AP, contributing to the advancement of spine surgery in Asia and beyond.
We are deeply grateful to the distinguished CSRS-AP faculty who have traveled across borders to support this event. As esteemed senior members of the society, they include Prof. Yasutsugu Yukawa and Prof. Hisanori Mihara from Japan; Dr. Kang Taek Lim, Prof. Kyung-Chung Kang, and Prof. Jae Jun Yang from Korea; as well as Prof. Gabriel Liu from Singapore. Their invaluable expertise and contributions greatly elevate the quality of this program and provide young surgeons in Taiwan and throughout the Asia-Pacific region with extraordinary opportunities for learning and growth.
At the same time, we would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to the organizing team from Chang Gung Memorial Hospital, Department of Spine Surgery — Prof. Tsung-Ting Tsai, Dr. Fu-Cheng Kao, and Dr. Ping-Yeh Chiu — for their meticulous planning and dedication, which have made this workshop possible.
Thank you once again for your trust and support. I look forward to meeting you at our upcoming academic events.
