EFAS/AOFAS Exchange Program

 

Congratulations to the 2025 EFAS/AOFAS Exchange Fellows!

AOFAS has partnered with the European Foot & Ankle Society (EFAS) to develop the EFAS/AOFAS Exchange Program. Through the program, three EFAS members each year will attend AOFAS Annual Meeting and travel to prominent orthopaedic foot and ankle institutions in the US and Canada. In turn, three AOFAS members will attend the EFAS Congress or Advanced Symposium and visit foot and ankle sites in Europe. At each site, Exchange Fellows will meet leaders in foot and ankle surgery, observe procedures in operating rooms, and share research and ideas.

For 2025, AOFAS selected Exchange Fellows will travel from September 20-October 13, 2025, attending the 2025 EFAS Congress in Vilnius, Lithuania; and visiting leading foot and ankle institutions in Oxford, United Kingdom; Marseille, France; and Vienna, Austria.

The EFAS selected Exchange Fellows will travel from September 8-October 5, 2025, attending the AOFAS Annual Meeting 2025 in Savannah, Georgia; and visiting the Medical University of South Carolina in Charleston, South Carolina; University of Virginia in Charlottesville, Virginia; and Duke University in Durham, North Carolina.
