Key Course Facts

Course Description

This course promotes innovative thinking and prepares you for modern challenges in surgery.

The specialist surgical field of orthopaedics has been central in the use of regenerative medicine. Research methods, studies in regenerative medicine and other emerging technologies feature poorly in the standard curriculum of the orthopaedic trainee.

This limits the quality of research output, reduces the potential for innovation and slows the rates of adoption of transformative treatments for patients, while leaving the surgeon unable to critically evaluate new treatments.

This course targets this deficiency with a strong emphasis on research methodology and critical analysis that is based on a platform formed of in-depth scientific knowledge and proven by translation into clinical practice.
