Still looking for a way to join GlobalSurg 2?

Patient recruitment for GlobalSurg 2 is nearing completion, but it is not too late to be part of our next publication by joining GlobalSurg 2 as a data validator

Validation is an important part of the study ensuring that data collected is of high quality. We are now recruiting a data validator at each centre that has submitted data into GlobalSurg 2.

To act as a validator you should:

be a qualified doctor or nurse
be independent of the team collecting data at your centre
have access to theatre logbooks
have read the GlobalSurg protocol and completed associated training modules

All validators will receive citation as collaborators on GlobalSurg 2 publications.

If you are interested in becoming a validator for GlobalSurg 2, please contact your local GlobalSurg lead via the contact form with your name, grade and centre. Alternatively, email the GlobalSurg team directly (enquiry@globalsurg.org)

We look forward to working on this part of the project with you!

Forward

The GlobalSurg network grows stronger and stronger thanks to your help. Please share this email with national and international colleagues, especially those in countries not yet represented on our registration map.
