== '''Education''' ==
Dr. Michelassi started medical school at 19 and was immediately attracted by surgery. During medical school Dr. Michelassi spent several months at the [[Massachusetts General Hospital]] (MGH) in Boston as a visiting student.

At that time, the chairman was Dr. Frank Spencer, a cardiac surgeon, later president of the [[American Surgical Association]] and president of the [[American College of Surgeons]]. Other surgeons on the faculty included Dr. John Ranson (of the [[Ranson criteria|“Ranson criteria”]] for pancreatitis), Dr. Arthur Localio, a master GI surgeon and Dr. Anthony Imparato, a master vascular surgeon. All of them had great impact on Dr. Fabrizio Michelassi.<ref name=":0" />

The scope of practice covered by the DoS faculty members includes: Breast Surgery; Colon and Rectal Surgery; Endocrine Surgery; Liver Transplantation and Hepato-biliary-pancreatic Surgery; Kidney and Pancreas Transplantation; Minimally Invasive and Bariatric Surgery; Oral and Maxillo-Facial Surgery and Dentistry; Pediatric Surgery; Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery; Surgical Oncology; Trauma, Burns, Acute and Critical Care; and Vascular, Podiatry and Endovascular Surgery. Over the tenure of Dr. Michelassi, the number of clinical faculty and surgical cases performed at New York-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell Medical Center has doubled. Likewise, research programs have grown to include programs in Regenerative Medicine, Pancreatic Cancer, Translational Science Research, Comparative Effectiveness Research, Education and Simulation Research, Device Research, Technology Innovation Research and Clinical Trials. The Division of Research, founded in 2009, is now comprised of over 50 investigators, including faculty, postdoctoral fellows, medical students, PhD graduate students, and technical staff.

The Department of Surgery continues to focus on inspiring medical students to consider surgery as a future profession and to train residents for academic careers. The Department of Surgery continues to offer an ACGME-accredited General Surgery residency and ACGME-accredited Vascular, Critical Care, and Colon and Rectal Surgery fellowships. The department also continues to offer a Fellowship Council accredited Advanced GI/MIS Surgery fellowship and a fully accredited Endocrine Surgery fellowship and CODA approved training programs in General Practice Residency (Dentistry) and Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery. The department also continues to provide non-ACGME fellowship training in Burn Surgery. In total, the Department of Surgery trains a complement of more than 150 trainees per year. A state-of-the art Simulation Center (SAIL) facilitates educational modules and training.

Over the course of the past decade, New York-Presbyterian has transformed itself into a hospital system. The Department of Surgery faculty now extend across four of these hospital sites: New York-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell Medical Center (NYP-WCMC), New York-Presbyterian Lower Manhattan Hospital (NYP-LMH), New York-Presbyterian Queens (NYP-Q) and New York-Presbyterian Brooklyn Methodist Hospital (NYP-BMH). Simultaneously, the collaboration with Weill Cornell Medicine helped to maintain the affiliation with [[Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center]] and to forge several important new partnerships far beyond New York City with affiliations with [[Houston Methodist Hospital|Houston Methodist]] in Texas, [[Weill Cornell Medical College in Qatar|Weill Cornell Medicine-Qatar]] in Doha, Qatar and Weill Bugando in Mwanza, Tanzania. With these new affiliations, the department’s medical students, residents and faculty participated in training, clinical service and research activities at other national and international sites.
