EUROSPINE Robotics & Navigation Fellowship Programme 2026

Experience a unique three-week travelling fellowship combining structured education at the EUROSPINE Annual Meeting with immersive clinical exposure at leading European spine centres specialising in robotics and navigation.

What is this Fellowship About?

In collaboration with Globus, the EUROSPINE Robotics & Navigation Travelling Fellowship 2026 supports the continued education and training of spine surgeons through a structured and immersive three-week programme.

The Fellowship begins with attendance at the EUROSPINE Annual Meeting in Gothenburg (7–9 October 2026), including the Pre-Day Course on Tuesday, 6 October. EUROSPINE is the leading European congress for spine surgery and spinal care, bringing together structured education, case-based learning, and masterclasses with forward-looking sessions on AI, robotics, minimally invasive techniques, and data-driven quality improvement.

Following the Annual Meeting, all Fellows will travel to Amsterdam for a two-day Robotics Skills Lab led by Globus, before visiting three specialised European spine centres for direct observation of — and where possible participation in — robotic and navigated spine surgery under the guidance of renowned specialists.

The Fellowship offers ten places and combines hands-on observation, focused discussions, and exposure to innovative technologies used in spine surgery. Funding is valued at up to €5,500 per fellow, subject to EUROSPINE reimbursement policies. Funding covers self-arranged travel and accommodation. All Fellows are required to register for the Annual Meeting, Pre-Day Course, and networking events, which will be reimbursed from the allocated funding.
