Description
The Fellows Research Grant is an AO Trauma North America program supporting worthwhile clinical and translational trauma-oriented research undertaken during orthopedic trauma fellowship training. It is intended for fellows at AO Trauma NA-sponsored sites in the United States or Canada. Fellows may develop their own research project or undertake a discrete component of an established investigator’s larger research endeavor.
The program links research funding to project completion, reporting, and a final manuscript. A fellowship program director or designated faculty member must participate as a co-investigator, and funded work must be submitted first to the Journal of Orthopaedic Trauma for publication consideration.
