Testimonials

First of all, I just can say that this is an absolutely recommendable experience for someone that looks for training in microsurgery.

Orthopedic surgeon, Spain

I recently attended a Microsurgical Course run by Professor René Remie at the Surgical Skills Centre in Almere Stad, Netherlands where I received first class training in microsurgical techniques performed on the Rat using a Leica Microscope. The operating station was set up to a high quality and there were many books and papers available for reference. I was initially trained on a ‘Latex rubber’ Rat complemented with lectures received in the morning each day on all other subjects relevant t… Read more

From my experience on the 3-day radiotelemetry course, I would absolutely recommend this, or indeed any of the courses to anyone, to those with plenty of in vivo experience as much as those with only a little.

Kevin Coote, United Kingdom

I had the chance to follow the basic module B training in May 2022. In a family atmosphere, the 5 days are articulated between: – theoretical readings: anesthesia, analgesia, asepsis, etc. – demonstrations: a camera installed on the microscope retransmits the image on a large screen which allows the students to follow all the steps perfectly – practical exercises: first on silicone material then on animals (mouse or rat as preferred by the student) Prof. René Remie has a thorough … Read more

UCB Biopharma, Belgium

We are now using what we learnt on the course. I believe we are able to make it work. That was easy! and that will be easy.

Chunyu Jin, Denmark

“I recently completed the Glucose Clamp Course at the RRSSC and can highly recommend it. Although I began with limited experience in this specific technique, the comprehensive 7-day program thoroughly prepared me to independently perform the associated surgical procedures. In addition to its specialised focus on carotid and jugular vein catheterisation, the course provides an excellent foundation in fundamental surgical practices, including aseptic techniques and anaesthesia.”

Mathias, Denmark

Attending the 5 day microsurgery course at René Remie’s Surgical Skills Centre has been the single best investment for my research career to date. This is a highly informative, superbly organised course which delivers vast amounts of knowledge and advice. The theoretical lectures are delivered in an interesting and casual manner. Plenty of time remains for the practical learning, using fantastic equipment and ideal surgical stations. Experiencing this ideal set up has helped me at home to set… Read more

University of Newcastle, UK

I thought I had significant knowledge on the subject before attending the course but the quality and depth of teaching on the course made the whole subject make much more sense to me.

Nottingham, United Kingdom

I attended the 5-day Module B course with René and Irene in November of 2022. The course had a perfect balance of presentations, demonstrations, and hands-on practice. The presentations were packed with critical information every surgeon should know. I have 25 years of surgical experience, but my week at the RRSSC showed me how much more there is to learn in this field. René is a wealth of knowledge and I learned tremendously throughout the course. I really enjoyed my week and am very grateful… Read more

Andree Lapierre

I attended a 5-day rodent surgery training session with RRSSC in October 2020. This training occurred at the start of my PhD and I am very glad that I had this training so early on in my career. René’s knowledge and experience are phenomenal and I believe that having this training has provided me with a brilliant base set of skills to carry forwards in my research. René explained the key parts of rodent based research – including suturing, anaesthesia, instruments, asepsis, surgical techn… Read more
