The world’s most influential conference on surgical medicine, the American College of Surgeons Clinical Congress, recently held its 103rd meeting in San Diego, CA. It was at this meeting that Professor Peng Bing of Pancreatic Surgery Department, West China Hospital was named Fellow of the prestigious American College of Surgeons. Through years of dedicated research, publishing, and clinical work, Professor Peng has distinguished himself particularly in the area of pancreatic surgery.

Peng has authored or co-authored a total of more than 40 important papers published in some of the world’s leading medical journals. Between 2010 and October 2017, Professor Peng and his team performed over 300 laparoscopic pancreatico-duodenectomies. The team has successfully conducted numerous difficult and rarely performed surgeries, so that Peng and his team have been invited to share their significant experience with European and American medical scientists and physicians. In 2016, the team was invited to lecture at Bashkir State Medical University in Russia, where they also performed two surgery demonstrations.
