Upsurgeon

Upsurgeon UpSurgeOn is a cadaver-free simulation-based platform for psychomotor surgical skill enhancement using virtual and physical simulations.

It is currently focused on microsurgeries (neurosurgery, plastic surgery, ENT surgery, maxillofacial surgery, and spine surgery). The team is made up of Neurosurgeons, Residents, Medical Students, Digital Artists, Developers, Bioengineers, Graphic Designers, and Free-thinkers. UpSurgeOn was founded in 2017 by two neurosurgeons, Dr. Federico Nicolosi (Founder and CEO) and Dr. Giannantonio Spena (Co

-founder), and is headquartered in Milan, Italy. UpSurgeOn has been supported by the EIC (European Innovation Council) through the Horizon 2020 program (grant n 880895).

🎯 Simulation is not the future. It’s the present of neurosurgical education.​

​A 2025 study authored by F. Robertson et all, the result of a collaborative effort between Harvard Medical School – Massachusetts General Hospital and Stanford University, developed a novel training curriculum based on the UpSurgeOn Anterior CervicalBox—and the results speak for themselves.​

📈 +29.6% faster to reach retractor docking​
📈 -70% in cage placement time​
📈 -27.9% in plate and screw placement​
📈 88.9% of residents: “This should be part of standard neurosurgical training.”​

🙏 Special thanks to Dr. Grazia Menna for coordinating this impactful research and pushing the boundaries of surgical education. We also sincerely thank the teams from Harvard University and Stanford University for their valuable work and support.​

🌎 A NEW ERA BEGINS: The Most Monumental UpSurgeOn Experience Ever in LATIN AMERICA! 🇲🇽→🌎

What happened in Guadalajara wasn’t just a course — it was a revolution.
With over 120 top-tier participants, more than 200 surgical simulations, and an atmosphere charged with surgical excellence, this pre-congress course set a new global benchmark for hands-on neurosurgical education.

🚀 From microscopic cranial work to full-spectrum spinal endoscopy, from complex skull base procedures to paediatric craniosynostosis — every station pushed the boundaries of what’s possible without a cadaver.�

✨ LATIN AMERICA embraced the UpSurgeOn Technologies with overwhelming enthusiasm, recognizing the transformative power of hyperrealistic, accessible, and scalable simulation.

🤝 With our visionary partner Artimedica, we are now ready to take the next step:
Inspire and empower the neurosurgical community across Latin America, one brilliant mind at a time.�

✅ Advanced cranial & skull base procedures�
✅ Endoscopic, open & minimally invasive spinal techniques�
✅ Complex vascular simulations & tumor resections�
✅ Pediatric craniosynostosis — and beyond!�

This was not just a milestone.�It was history in the making. And it’s only the beginning.
