ICS-ICRS Fellowship

Introduction

Indian Cartilage Society (ICS) is striving hard to train its members in various aspects of cartilage repair surgeries. One most important aspect of cartilage repair are basic sciences that involves cell biology, scaffold engineering, cartilage histopathology, cartilage radiology and cartilage rehabilitation. Any cartilage care treatment is incomplete without these basic sciences and paramedical specialities. ICS is encouraging professionals of these allied fields to become member of ICS and also take part in teaching and training opportunities.

Our Founder, Dr Deepak Goyal has explored his contacts worldwide to explore such global possibilities. In the process, ICS has tied up with various ‘International Surgeons/ Faculties of Significant Eminence in Cartilage Repair or societies’, who can teach our members about various aspects of cartilage repair. ICS executive committee is also very generous in granting funds to meet various requirements of these fellowships.

ICS leadership is also thankful to various International Surgeons/ Faculties/ societies of Significant Eminence who are very supportive of these fellowships. ICRS is one such organisation who has partnered with ICS to start a prestigious ICSICRS fellowship.

“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
