In its 50th anniversary year, the AO Foundation completed the specialization with the creation of AOTrauma, a specialty involving those people interested in musculoskeletal trauma and disease, fractures, and its subsequent complications and problems.
The cooperative interaction between AOTrauma and the Foundation and its regions will continue to assure that AO remains the world leader in what it does best—education and research. As Prof Michael Wagner, Chairperson AOTrauma states:
| “The time is now for AOTrauma to meet the emerging requirements of the new professional Trauma community. From today, not only the left hand and right hand of Trauma will know what each are doing, but all our fingers too! AOTrauma teams will work and collaborate together to boost innovation, opportunities, and results for all." |
AOTrauma is an organization that creates a dynamic environment by fostering self-directed regional and national teams to run their own educational, research, and community development activities—an organization which creates leadership opportunities for senior Trauma surgeons while nurturing opportunities for younger future leaders.
AOTrauma—a five-thousand-strong network of Trauma surgeons unified in building a community of knowledge and new best practices!
