What is Journal Club?

Each week the expert Orthopaedic surgeons of the APOA will choose a journal article spotlighting some exciting research in the field of orthopaedics. 

This research will be summarized, presented and a series of open question posed to the members of journal club. 

Then over the week the journal club will be able to share and discuss their views in the journal club forum. You'll be able to "like" viewpoints you agree with and post your replies to arguments you wish to rebut. 

Earn badges and certificates.

By regularly participating in journal club you earn badges that you can then display proudly on your APOA online account or share on social media. By earning enough badges you'll earn a certificate of participation from the APOA.

Journal Club is open to all members of the APOA. 

Additionally you can join if you are a trainee orthopaedic surgeon. First sign up for an APOA online account providing details of your training program. Next once you have made account return to journal club to apply for access.
