Welcome Message

Dear Esteemed Colleagues, Distinguished Speakers, and Honored Guests,

It is with immense pleasure that I welcome you to the Ramathibodi International Robotics and Urology Symposium 2025 (RIRS25), hosted at Ramathibodi Hospital, Bangkok. This year’s theme, "Innovative Dreams," captures our collective aspiration to shape the future of medicine and urology through cutting-edge technologies, pioneering research, and global collaboration.

Building on the success of RIRS24, we are thrilled to bring together over 50 internationally acclaimed experts, along with participants from across Asia and beyond. Over the next two days, we will experience groundbreaking presentations and live demonstrations, showcasing the latest innovations in robotic and endourological surgery. These sessions are designed not only to enhance our surgical techniques but also to expand the possibilities of what we can achieve in the fields of medicine and urology.

At RIRS25, our aim is to provide an exceptional platform for knowledge exchange, skill development, and networking. We are confident that this gathering will spark meaningful discussions, inspire new breakthroughs, and strengthen the bonds within our global urological community.

Once again, welcome to RIRS25. We look forward to your valuable contributions as we work together to advance the future of medicine and urology.

Warmest regards,
