Trainees of European Pediatric Surgery (TEPS) 
The Trainees of European Pediatric Surgery (TEPS) is a network of pediatric surgeons in training across Europe, dedicated to advancing education, collaboration, and research for the next generation of pediatric surgeons.
Our mission is to foster international connections, promote educational opportunities, and generate high-quality, trainee-led, multi-center research within the EUPSA community.
Trainees at any stage of their training — whether you’re just starting out or already advanced — are warmly encouraged to join. TEPS is a place to learn, share ideas, and grow together, whether your interests lie in research, innovation, education, or improving patient care.
We hold monthly online meetings to discuss ongoing and upcoming projects, ensuring that everyone has the opportunity to contribute, learn, and stay engaged. Don’t hesitate to join even if you don’t know anyone yet — TEPS is a friendly, welcoming group where new faces quickly become friends and collaborators!
This year, TEPS will be in the spotlight at the EUPSA Winter Meeting — details will follow by email.
For 2026, several scholarships and opportunities are available exclusively for TEPS members:
- STEPS Seminar
- IRCAD Course, April 16–18, 2026 – selection criteria will be shared soon
More events will be added to the EUPSA Events Calendar, and updates will be sent directly to our members.
