During the preclinical period of medical school, the clinical relevance of theoretical knowledge is given little attention. Medical students of the second year were invited to participate in an interdisciplinary congress for robot-assisted and digital surgery. The students had to evaluate the impact of the congress on their learning motivation, decision-making for a career in surgery, and relevance for their educational curriculum. Participation in the congress increased their learning motivation for preclinical subjects, and significantly increased their interest in a surgical career. Most students considered active involvement in medical congresses a valuable supplement to the medical curriculum. Congress participation during the preclinical period was ranked positively by medical students. Greater learning motivation and enthusiasm for the pilot teaching project as well as for surgical disciplines were registered. Thus, early involvement of medical students in scientific congresses should be an integral part of their educational curriculum.
在医学院的临床前阶段，理论知识的临床相关性几乎没有得到关注。邀请二年级的医学生参加一个机器人辅助和数字化手术的跨学科大会。学生们必须评估大会对他们的学习动机、选择外科职业的决策以及对他们的教育课程的相关性的影响。参加大会增加了他们对临床前学科的学习动机，并显著增加了他们对外科职业的兴趣。大多数学生认为积极参与医学大会是医学课程的有益补充。大会的参与在医学生中得到了积极的评价。对试点教学项目以及外科学科的学习动机和热情都有所提高。因此，应将医学生尽早参与科学大会纳入其教育课程的一个组成部分。
