Educational goals and characteristics

This is a combined clinical and research fellowship. The clinical goals are to provide a program of both primary and revision joint arthroplasty using current techniques. These will include both impaction allografting and structural allografting, and there will be a special focus of expertise in total hip and total knee computer navigation.

The fellow is expected to be involved in post-operative management and long-term follow up evaluation of patients, and participation in outpatient clinics and weekly Orthopaedic Grand Rounds will be expected. The research aspect of the fellowship will encompass projects in clinical navigation as well as a basic science research project.
