Surgical Innovation (SRI): Advances in Minimally Invasive Surgical Science, Technology, and Training is dedicated to becoming the core reference both signaling and highlighting all aspects and innovations supporting surgical practice for surgeons and for those active in the surgical specialties; but also for other physicians, engineers and technology experts.

Each issue of SRI offers unique and peer-reviewed articles from the vanguard of clinical practice but also from a wider innovational climate surrounding surgery: noteworthy and innovative research from the basic sciences, computational medicine, medical informatics and AI, state-of-the-art in surgical education, and useful insights into the business and practice of surgery. The journal gives the reader perceptive and incisive articles that highlight those practices and technologies that will change surgical practice today and revolutionize surgery for the decades to come. We -the Journal Editors and joint Editorial Board- encourage our readers to actively participate into the community of innovaters and given the scope, aim for acceptable review times.
