positions) James Slover, MD – Director The NYU/ISK Adult Reconstructive Fellowship Program is designed to provide extensive clinical experience in primary and revision knee and hip arthroplasty, with emphasis on a wide range of approaches and techniques, including minimally invasive surgery and computer-assisted surgical navigation. The fellow is involved in all facets of patient care, including clinic coverage and resident education in addition to intensive operating room experience. The fellows work at LOH, Tisch, St Francis Hospital and BHC. Division of Shoulder and Elbow Surgery (one position) Andrew Rokito, MD – Co-Director Young Kwon, MD, PhD – Co-Director The Division of Shoulder and Elbow Surgery offers a one-year clinical fellowship, accredited by the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES), which provides trainees a high-volume clinical experience and diverse surgical opportunities. The primary goal of the fellowship is to train fellows to provide state-of-the-art treatment for all injuries and conditions affecting the shoulder and elbow and to become proficient in the entire gamut of arthroscopic and open surgical techniques. Fellows also participate in our robust orthopedic education program, including resident and fellow didactic conferences, journal clubs, indications conferences, morbidity have a faculty sponsor within the department. The sponsor will guide the VIP’s experience and help the VIP obtain the educational experience he/she desires. Length of visit, the location of the observership, and the specific activities the VIP will engage in are agreed upon by the VIP and his/her faculty sponsor before the visit takes place. RESEARCH AND SURGICAL TRAINING FACILITIES The Musculoskeletal Research Center Research is one of the cornerstones of the academic experience at NYU Langone Health. The department boasts a center dedicated exclusively to orthopedic basic science and clinical research. The worldclass research facilities and labs that comprise the Musculoskeletal Research Center (MRC) are a vital resource for all orthopedic residents and fellows. Molecular and biomechanical research is the major focus of the MRC’s research laboratories. MRC laboratories provide facilities where faculty, residents, fellows, medical students, graduate and undergraduate students, and visiting scholars can conduct interdisciplinary research in tissue and and mortality conferences, and sports medicine conferences. A typical weekly schedule consists of attending shoulder and elbow, sports medicine, and department-wide academic conferences; providing care in our outpatient ambulatory care center and office sites; performing surgical procedures under the guidance of our core faculty members; and engaging in scientific research. Division of Pediatric Orthopedic Surgery (one position) Pablo Castañeda, MD – Co-director Cordelia Carter, MD – Co-Director The Division of Pediatric Orthopedic Surgery actively involves the fellow in the daily activities of the service, including patient care in the clinic, inpatient wards, the operating rooms and resident education. Fractures, congenital disorders and the entire spectrum of pediatric orthopedic and neuromuscular diseases provide a diverse experience for the fellow and result in an extremely well-rounded program. The treatment of pediatric spinal disorders is a combined effort with the Spine Division. The fellows work at LOH, the Center for Children, The Hassenfeld Children’s Hospital, Tisch and BHC. Visiting International Physician (VIP) Program The Department of Orthopedic Surgery established a Visiting International Physician (VIP) Program in order to accommodate the numerous qualified foreign orthopedic surgeons interested in the cutting edge orthopedic care and research practiced by our world-class faculty. The visits from international academic observers have a twofold benefit: VIPs learn state-of-theart orthopedic techniques available at NYU Langone Health while sharing their own accrued knowledge and expertise with our faculty. In order to participate in the VIP program, a physician must cellular biomechanics, regeneration, and repair. The primary lab for the MRC is a 4,000-square-foot facility that houses a “materials testing” laboratory, cell and molecular biology laboratory, histology laboratory, tissue culture facilities, and a microscopy laboratory. In 2017, we expanded our research facilities to the NYU Tandon School of Engineering with a combined laboratory in the 26th Street facility. In addition, there are many opportunities for collaboration within NYU Langone Health including collaborative research with staff at the departments of Population Health, Cell Biology, Medicine as well as researchers from the NYU School of Dentistry. EDUCATIONAL FACILITIES AND TRAINING CENTERS The New York Simulation Center The New York Simulation Center for the Health Sciences, created through a partnership between The City University of New York and NYU Langone Health, is one of the nation’s largest urban health science simulation training facilities. This state-ofthe-art, 25,000-square foot center, is located within Bellevue Hospital. The facility’s primary mission is training students from the affiliated nursing, medical, DC 9/14/2020 dental and allied health schools of NYU and CUNY as well as residents, practicing physicians and nurses at NYU Langone Health.
