DVSE
The task of the German Association for Shoulder and Elbow Surgery (DVSE) is to support the ethical practice of evidence-based, high-quality and cost-transparent medicine in this field. medi is interested in ensuring that patients are treated on the basis of the best knowledge sources and data available.
medi therefore feels that it is particularly important to encourage young medical practitioners in order to main the existing high standards. As an official co-operation partner, medi supports the DVSE's National Travel Fellowship with a grant of €4,000 each year. The grant provides funding for two candidates to undertake a two-week study trip to German centres for shoulder and elbow surgery. The prerequisites for applications by junior doctors training to become orthopaedic specialists or trauma surgeons are a considerable level of interest in diseases and treatment of the shoulder and elbow joint and the written support of the application by the Hospital Director.
You will find full information about the association on the website and details of how to apply for the grant at http://www.dvse.info/fortbildung/reisestipendium-der-dvse.html
DKG
The German Knee Society (DKG) promotes research, advanced training and continual professional development of doctors, therapists and scientists in the treatment of injuries and diseases of the knee joint. This co-operation allows medi to invite doctors and customers to sit in on operations, for example. This opportunity is used mainly by young doctors to train further and to familiarise themselves with new surgical methods.
