In order to help develop the career of female orthopaedic surgeons, SFO offers a unique opportunity for three young female orthopaedic surgeons to travel to major Centres in Switzerland for two weeks to acquire specific knowledge, exchange thoughts with experts in the field, and network. This year's subspecialty will be Foot & Ankle Surgery. A detailed program will follow.
Fellowship period: 05-15.06.2023.
Eligible as Fellows are female orthopaedic surgeons in their last two years of residency or after completing their FMH working as ‘Oberärztin / Cheffe de Clinique’ in an official, accredited swiss training facility (‘Weiterbildungsstätte / Centre de formation’) for Orthopaedic Surgery. It is mandatory for the candidates to have had at least one year of specific training in the chosen subspeciality. The candidates have to be members of Swiss Female Orthopaedics. Priority is given to candidates who have not yet benefited from another sponsored fellowship.
Applications are to be submitted until 15.2.2023 with a letter of motivation and a CV to the Chair of Fellowship Committee Dr. Lisca Drittenbass via email: lisca.drittenbass@gmail.com.
Our mission is to inspire, encourage, and enable women in orthopaedics to realize their professional and personal goals by giving them support at various stages in their career
Our aim is to raise awareness of the barriers to equity and inclusion of women in orthopaedic surgery and seek solutions and methods to overcome these barriers
Swiss Female Orthopaedics offers a networking community that allows different generations and colleagues from all over Switzerland to connect and share personal experiences
Our goal is to offer medical students and young residents mentorship programs. With the increasing number of female medical students, we need to make orthopaedics a more interesting choice for the students to increase our pool of candidates
We work to give young female residents and consultants the possibility of participating in high-level fellowship programs, to empower and encourage our female colleagues
