Who Should Attend The COA Basic Science Course?
After surveying and meeting with the Program Directors, there was a unanimous acknowledgement of the importance of this course, and to incorporate it as part of their core curriculum for residency training.
The COA Basic Science Course is designed for the “mature” orthopaedic resident (ideally midway through training, R3 and R4), but would also be of use for the orthopaedist who wants to return to the basic fundamentals of orthopaedic practice.
Ideally, you will develop the ability to conceptualize and understand all clinical problems at multiple levels – pathophysiology at the cellular level, gross morphology as reflected on the radiograph, and clinical presentation as assessed through history, physical examination, and laboratory parameters.
This information is highly relevant to other disciplines including: pathology, radiology, rehabilitation medicine, rheumatology, and physiotherapy.
If you have any questions please email education@canorth.org.
