    “Indian Cartilage Society is the second largest society of dedicated cartialge clinicians in the world. Being in existence for past 20+ years we have a lot of distinguished fellowships up for grabs which are focused on developing a deeper understanding of the pathology and treatment of cartilage disorders. These fellowships provide for one to one interaction with senior surgeons over varying periods which are fully funded by the society. We request young arthroscopic surgeons to take advantage of the fellowships and enhance their understanding in this science.” Read More
