Orthopodcasts
Orthopodcasts are a series of podcasts and screencasts addressing a wide variety of trauma and orthopaedic (T&O) topics, often not found elsewhere.
Each Orthopodcast is a short conversation with an expert (10-15 minutes): not repetition of a book chapter or research paper, but dialogue that will be easy to listen to and digest whilst still being educational. They are downloadable to listen to at your convenience.
Orthopodcasts are intended to promote discussion and share best practice. They are underpinned by the views of participants, rather than any rigid guidelines. If you have any feedback or ideas for future topics please email policy@boa.ac.uk.
