The Theodor Billroth Academy® (TBA®) was founded in 2008 after an intensive eight-year development phase. Built on the principles of scientific excellence, interdisciplinary collaboration, and medical education, the academy was established to advance global research and knowledge exchange in surgery, oncology, and healthcare sciences.

From its inception, TBA® has aimed to bridge the gap between theory and practice, fostering an international network of scientists, clinicians, and academics committed to innovation and integrity in medicine.
