Women's Leadership Initiative

 

Now accepting nominations for the 2019 Women's Leadership Awards! Nominate yourself or a colleague by Monday, May 20.

The AOFAS Women’s Leadership Initiative supports and encourages women in foot and ankle orthopaedic surgery. As part of the initiative, the AOFAS and Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Foundation established the Women’s Leadership Award and Women’s International Leadership Award. The awards are presented annually to one woman in the US or Canada and one woman outside the US/Canada who demonstrate leadership in orthopaedics as well as research, humanitarian efforts, education, business, and/or philanthropy.

Congratulations to Ruth L. Thomas, MD, recipient of the 2018 Women's Leadership Award, and Su-Young Bae, MD, PhD, recipient of the 2018 Women's International Leadership Award!

The Women's Leadership Initiative is funded through individual and corporate gifts to the Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Foundation.
