The ICRS and its partners have joined forces by offering several Fellowship and scholarship Programmes to the ICRS members. Applications are open only to young ICRS Members who are in good standing. The programme represents a serious commitment from ICRS and its partners to support highly motivated trainees and residents with basic science knowledge and clinical research skills. Together, we build a strong network and push for innovation. We believe that research is the engine of development and that linking and educating passionate young professionals is the way to advance the field of orthoregeneration significantly. Applications should be submitted before the deadline for each programme. Applications received after the deadline will not be considered.
This new initiative by ICRS and the Cartilage & Joint Preservation Foundation, Inc. provides an opportunity for young orthopaedic surgeons, residents, fellows or scientists from South America, Africa and Asia who are interested in cartilage regeneration and joint preservation. These regions are currently underrepresented in the ICRS membership.
The ICRS Global Access Fellowship offers one fully hosted participation (including travel, hotel, event registration, all social and networking events) for the upcoming 8th Surgical Skills Course & Wet Lab in Doha/Qatar, from February 6-9, 2025.
Following this experience, the fellow is required to submit a written report of their experience to ICRS, which will be published on the website of the Cartilage & Joint Preservation Foundation, Inc. and shared with a wider ICRS community via ICRS digital channels.
