Research Opportunities
Research Opportunities
Together with the Levy Shoulder to Hand Center's dedicated research staff and the Orthopedic Research Fellow, the fellow is involved with a number of research projects each year!
Since 2015, over 150 peer reviewed publications have been published and over 10 chapters.
Research is streamlined and efficient. Through research experiences, fellows will develop tools for critical thinking, identification of bias, study analytics, manuscript writing abilities, and critical analysis of shoulder and elbow literature. Clinical research projects take advantage of the CareSense-based Shoulder and Elbow Repository -- home to over 8000 surgical patient reported outcomes.
Our Research Institute has gained national and international recognition for high quality research and education.
Research Requirements
Each fellow is encouraged to contribute (as an author) to at least two research projects. One of these projects must be a publishable, original clinical research project for which the fellow is the first author. The expectation is that this project will be presented at the Annual Fellow Competition at the San Diego Shoulder Course.
