Resident Master Series

This is a new virtual curriculum opportunity for orthopaedic trainees.
 
The Pediatric Orthopaedic Society of North America (POSNA) invites you to participate in the Resident Master Series. This virtual symposium chooses one topic to explore with four (4) lectures by experts in the field. The symposium culminates with a live 20-minute moderated panel discussion during an online event that will allow trainees to observe a panel debate among the experts centered around challenging cases and treatment dilemmas. This format is modeled after the successful format for POSNA’s annual meetings. All lectures will be maintained on POSNAcademy.org

The first symposium will be held on Wednesday July 15 from 9:00-10:00 pm EST on Microsoft teams with technical support from the Orthopedic Foundation for Education and Research (OFER). 
The Topic is “Elbow Fractures that are not Supracondylar Humerus Fractures”
