In this edition, Dr. McAlpin looks back on a successful Spring Meeting in his president's message, and outlines some new initiatives he's excited about going forward. If you missed the Spring Meeting, we have a photo gallery to show you some of what you missed. There's news about new offerings for residents and students, an announcement about a partnership with a medical imaging platform for patients and doctors, news about the Annual Fall Meeting, and more.Guidelines for submission of abstracts to The Orthopod
