The International Relations Committee of the American College of Surgeons (ACS) sponsors three academic surgeon exchange programs to send a talented young U.S. or Canadian Fellow to the annual surgical meeting of each participating country – Australia-New Zealand (ANZ), Japan, and Germany. Afterward, the Fellows tour several sites tailored to their specific research interests. In exchange, the College accepts young academic surgeon-scholars from the participating societies to attend the annual Clinical Congress. This exchange is with the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons through the ACS Australia-New Zealand Chapter, the Japan Surgical Society through the ACS Japan Chapter, and the German Surgical Society through the ACS Germany Chapter.
