The mission of Zimmer Biomet is to alleviate pain and improve the quality of life for people around the world. LuskinOIC Medical Director, Dr. Mauricio Silva, joined Zimmer Biomet’s staff to lead surgeon training involving informative presentations. They also led hands-on activities where they rotated through various stations learning surgical techniques, such as techniques for managing basic fractures using castings, sawbones models, power tools and hardware.

After the workshop, the students participated in panel discussions with Dr. Silva and Zimmer Biomet staff. They hosted a Q & A session that allowed attendees the chance to ask questions and gain insight about their professional journeys, as well as Zimmer Biomet products and procedures. Students were able to hear about why they went into medicine and orthopaedics and learn more about fracture management principles.

Thank you to the Zimmer Biomet team for coordinating such an amazing event for our students!
