Welcome Message

Dear Colleagues,

It is with great pleasure that we welcome you to the International Colorectal Research Summit (iCRS) 2025, to be held from August 29 (Fri) to 31 (Sun), 2025, at COEX Magok, Seoul, Korea.

Hosted by the Korean Society of Coloproctology (KSCP), iCRS has evolved into a premier international meeting point for surgeons, researchers, and healthcare professionals dedicated to the advancement of colorectal disease management. KSCP, since its founding in 1967, has continually fostered clinical excellence and international collaboration in the field.

The theme of this year’s summit, "Back to the Summit," celebrates our return to in-person gatherings and emphasizes renewed momentum in global academic exchange. iCRS 2025 will offer a dynamic program featuring surgical videos, joint symposium with global societies, interactive expert sessions, and cutting-edge research presentations. It will serve as a valuable opportunity to share clinical experiences and surgical techniques, while also fostering professional connections among colleagues from around the world.

We look forward to your active participation in iCRS 2025. Join us in Seoul this August as we reunite, reconnect, and reignite the future of colorectal care together.

Sincerely,
