Australian & New Zealand Orthopaedic Research Society (ANZORS)

Purpose
To promote, support, develop and encourage research in musculoskeletal disorders, diseases and injuries and in their management. To provide a forum for the sharing and dissemination of knowledge in these fields.

Goals
ANZORS represents a stream of basic and applied scientists, orthopaedic surgeons, rheumatologists and industry scientists who have passion, dynamics and motivation to pursue orthopaedic research. The orthopaedic research community in Australia and New Zealand is rapidly expanding. Several areas, including molecular biology research, therapeutic lineage specific cell therapy, orthopaedic bioengineering and prothesis design and assessment are becoming the focus of research by our members. Thus, communication between groups for encouragement of interdisciplinary collaboration should be the foremost goal for ANZORS.
