Orthopaedic Research and Education Foundation/Current Concepts in Joint Replacement Awards

OREF and Current Concepts in Joint Replacement (CCJR) meetings, through the auspices of the Current Concepts Institute (CCI), announce two awards of $2,000 each recognizing excellence in completed investigations focusing on health care policy, clinical outcomes, or translational research that has immediate clinical impact in the diagnosis and treatment of patients. All orthopaedic surgeons who have completed residency and/or fellowship training, including those in private practice, are eligible. Clinicians are encouraged to apply. Recipients will be selected through OREF’s independent peer-review process.

Successful primary authors/Award Recipients will be given the opportunity to present their papers at the next following CCJR meeting before an international orthopaedic surgeon audience, and will join a faculty comprised of orthopaedic thought leaders. The Award Recipients’ presentations will be included in the corresponding meeting’s enduring archive, and will be considered for publication. As a faculty member, Award Recipients’ travel expenses will be reimbursed by CCI. Submission guidelines for Project Year 2009.
