EFORT Congress 2014

This prestigious Association founded in 1918 is one of the oldest in the world and has a strong history in education and research in the field of trauma and musculo-skeletal surgery. The EFORT education committee chaired by Enric Caceres with on-going support from the Specialist Societies have created an exceptional programme covering differing topics from basic research to areas within daily practice of orthopaedics and trauma. Unique to this meeting will be the incorporation of the BOA’s own cyclical education programme which will also be open to participants. The theme of the meeting as a whole is patient safety which becomes the motto for London 2014.
The format of the meeting will again hopefully encourage interaction between participants both with symposia and instructional lectures being delivered by distinguished speakers from all over Europe. Other sessions will include Interactive Expert Exchanges, Complex Case Discussions and Debate Forums together with the newly introduced and successful sessions founded on Evidence Based Medicine. We are also delighted that we will be joined at this Congress by a delegation from the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons who will be able to add further to the scientific contribution.
