Duration: 1 year (August 1 to July 31)
Deadline: October 30
Stipend: $66,000/year plus benefits and stipends for travel to elective shoulder & elbow opportunities
Location: Massachusetts General and Brigham and Women’s Hospitals, Boston as well as
elective opportunities in Europe and USA in unique shoulder/elbow experiences
Goals and characteristics:
The goal of the fellowship is to
provide postgraduate education at the highest depth and breadth of experience in
routine, complex, and revision problems affecting the shoulder and elbow.
This is a one-year fellowship program which
will be organized with rotations at the Massachusetts General Hospital and
Brigham and Women’s Hospital, the two main teaching institutions at Harvard
Medical School. Opportunities for elective rotations in both Europe and the USA
which provide novel educational experiences in shoulder and elbow to supplement
the Harvard experience will be made available with stipend for travel.
The experience will entail exposure to all
problems affecting the shoulder from arthroscopy to arthroplasty and with an
emphasis on complex problem solving. Approaches to traumatic and reconstructive
management of elbow will also be part of the experience. Opportunity for both
basic science and clinical research are available.
Teaching is facilitated by a clinical volume of
over 1500 shoulder surgeries/year, interaction with a Sports Medicine Program,
and access to a 2 terabyte teaching file of complex shoulder problems.
This fellowship participates in the ASES match program.
