ABOUT THE PROGRAM
The three-day program for the 22nd Congress of the APOA will feature all twelve subspecialty sections of the APOA plus more. Aside from the APOA’s specialty sections, there will be sessions on Musculoskeletal Tumors, Musculoskeletal Ultrasound and Ilizarov Methods. On the virtual platform, we will be spread over six breakout rooms every day, with each room hosting different subspecialty sections with their own specific programs broadcasted simultaneously. There will be common sessions during common breaktimes, plus plenary lectures to be held at the end of each day. The plenary lectures will be delivered by recognized and respected Orthopedic mentors in a variety of specialties, who will serve to motivate and inspire all our attendees.
Each day will be divided into four-hour sessions, devoted to different specialties. Each four-hour session will feature a variety of learning styles, opportunities, and methods to maximize our attendees’ time. Within each session will be incorporated research paper presentation opportunities, organized per specialty. This will enable research papers to be delivered according to specific interests.
The Scientific Committee is working hard to ensure a fruitful and worthwhile investment of your time and attention. Keep up-to-date with important research, learn directly from the experiences and learnings of others, share best practices, discover new equipment and tools of the trade, and develop new skills and techniques.
