Ruberg Symposium 2026

The symposium is held at The Ohio State University in Columbus, Ohio.

The stated audience includes faculty, residents, fellows, students and local practitioners.

It is most useful for plastic surgery faculty, residents, fellows and local practitioners in the Columbus area who want a one-day CME program, since it is hosted by the Ohio State University's Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery and draws a long roster of speakers, including Andrea Pusic and James E. Zins. Surgeons wanting a multi-day national meeting with a large industry exhibit hall, or those outside the region, would get less from a single-day academic program like this.

Attendees at academic surgical CME programs usually wear business casual, such as slacks and collared shirts or blouses, with some faculty in suits; clinicians sometimes wear a white coat or scrubs if coming from clinic.
