Saturday, March 10
8:00 AM – 5:00 PM
With support received from Orthofix
Organized by the ORS Basic Science Education Committee
The ORS/OREF Basic Science Course will provide attendees with the tools to explain the functions and limitations of the science behind the decisions, treatments and procedures that are performed in practice every day. The course content has been derived from the Orthopaedic Basic Science: Foundations of Clinical Practice textbook developed in partnership with the AAOS and ORS. Course attendees will receive a copy of the textbook as part of the registration fee. The knowledge of the concepts learned in this course is evaluated through the Orthopaedic In-Training Examination and the American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery Part 1 and Recertification Examinations. Understanding the science behind clinical decisions is important as we strive to improve patient care.
The course will benefit anyone currently in the field or entering the field of orthopaedics including orthopaedic residents and fellow, practicing orthopaedic surgeons and musculoskeletal researchers.
Registration required:
ORS Associate Members, Non-member Students/Fellows, Residents, Post-Docs: $155.00
ORS and AAOS Active Members: $195.00
Non-Members: $285.00
