Submissions due for 4th Annual RJOS Research Symposium

We would like to showcase the research talent of our membership! We’re pleased to invite you to submit an abstract for the 4th Annual RJOS Research Symposium, taking place on March 3, 2027, as part of the RJOS Annual Meeting. This event is a great opportunity to showcase the outstanding research being done by our members across all stages of their careers. Due to time and space constraints, this year's program will feature poster presentations only. While all selected poster winners are expected to be present on site, our top finalists will give a brief presentation to our judges during the symposium. These finalists will receive a scholarship that can be applied to travel expenses, and all other poster winners will receive a complimentary meeting registration.

Furthermore, we are pleased to announce two special research awards promoting:
• Diverse Perspectives in Orthopaedic Surgery
• Sustainability in Orthopaedic Surgery

We thank Dr. Mark Baratz for his generous support of these awards and encourage submissions in both areas.The winners for Best Overall Research Poster, Best Poster in Diverse Perspectives, and Best Poster in Sustainability will be announced during the Annual Meeting.

Please click here to send your submissions by September 14, 2026. Please note: Podium and poster presenter winners will be notified in early December 2026.
