Annual training workshop for orthopaedic residents, surgeons in fellowships, and junior faculty who want to become orthopaedic clinician scholars.

About

This yearly workshop trains orthopaedic residents between their second and fifth postgraduate years, fellows, and early-career faculty who hope to build careers combining clinical practice with research. Seats were awarded after a demanding application review rather than on a first-come basis. The content aimed to strengthen abilities a surgeon-scientist relies on, from research methods and ethical research conduct to leadership, management, professionalism, and communication. ORS runs the program, which was started in 2003 because of worry over how many future clinician scholars were entering the field.

Clinician Scholar Career Development Program 2026 was held in Rosemont, IL.

The program is designed for orthopaedic residents in PGY2–PGY5 years, surgeons in fellowships, and junior faculty through year three.

It is worth it for orthopaedic residents (PGY2-PGY5), fellows and junior faculty who aim for a research career, since the workshop has run since 2003 and faculty included Kathleen Derwin of Cleveland Clinic and Christopher Dy of Washington University School of Medicine. Senior faculty or clinicians with no interest in research would get little from it, and entry depends on a competitive application, so it is not open registration.

Academic medical workshops usually call for business casual, such as slacks and collared shirts or blouses, with a blazer for faculty interactions.
