Graduation

The entire Department of Orthopaedics gathers once each year, in early June, to celebrate the graduating residents and fellows and hold an academic seminar to highlight resident research. Graduating residents present their research for discussion by the faculty and other residents. 

The event also hosts a distinguished guest orthopaedic surgeon, who gives lectures and participates in the discussion of the graduates and awarded research projects.
