Advanced Practice Providers (APPs), including physician assistants and nurse practitioners, are increasingly integrated into surgical subspecialties, including hand and upper extremity surgery. National workforce data demonstrates significant growth in the APP workforce, particularly within surgical fields, where APPs are expanding their roles in perioperative care, fracture management, wound care, clinic-based procedures, and first-assist responsibilities. Despite this expansion, there are limited structured, specialty-specific educational opportunities designed to support advanced procedural and clinical decision-making skills in hand surgery. These gaps have direct implications for patient safety, functional outcomes, efficiency of surgical teams, and healthcare value.

Ohio State University will host a Pancreas Symposium on Friday, May 8th, bringing together national leaders in pancreatic cancer care and research, including Dr. Theodore S. Hong of Harvard Medical School and Massachusetts General Hospital and Dr. Jen Jen Yeh of the University of North Carolina. This symposium is designed for clinicians and researchers committed to advancing the early detection, diagnosis, and comprehensive management of pancreatic disease. Participants will gain practical insights to increase clinician awareness of early and subtle signs and risk factors, promote standardized, evidence-based diagnostic pathways, and translate emerging advances, such as precision medicine and biomarker-driven therapies, into real-world practice. The program will also emphasize supportive care across the disease continuum, including pancreatic exocrine insufficiency (PEI) management, nutrition, and rehabilitation, while addressing care disparities and fostering equitable, patient-centered care.
