Sixteenth Fellows Forum On Osteoporosis and Metabolic Bone Diseases

September 7-8, 2022 Hiton Austin, Austin, Texas

Accepting applications through Friday, June 3, 2022

The Endocrine Fellows Foundation (EFF) and the American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR) are pleased to offer fellows training in osteoporosis and other metabolic bone diseases a unique opportunity to participate in the Sixteenth Fellows Forum on Metabolic Bone Diseases, September 7-8, 2022. The EFF-ASBMR Fellows Forum will be held at the Hilton Austin in downtown Austin, Texas prior to the ASBMR Annual Meeting which is being held immediately thereafter, September 9-12, 2022. Faculty include a distinguished group of leaders including Drs. Clifford Rosen, Ego Seeman, Mary Bouxsein, Michael McClung, Paul Miller, Michael Whyte, Bart Clarke, and Neil Binkley. The topics to be presented and discussed will be timely and among the most important in our field. We have balanced the program to be equally strong in clinical and basic aspects of metabolic bone diseases.
The program is comprised of plenary lectures, breakout workshops, and poster sessions. Fellows present their work in one of two poster sessions where they receive faculty and peer feedback. We view the poster session as one of the highlights of the day and look forward to hearing about fellows’ exciting research in this setting.

Application Eligibility

Directors of Postdoctoral Subspecialty Training Programs for MDs (e.g. endocrinology, rheumatology, geriatrics, gynecology, orthopedics, women’s health), and Pre- or Postdoctoral PhD Fellowship Training Programs throughout the world are invited to select individuals from their programs who meet the criteria listed below and whose education, in their opinion, would be enhanced by participating in this Forum.

To ensure effective discussions among faculty and fellows, the number of attendees is limited to 60. Fellows accepted to participate in the Forum will receive hotel and flight travel assistance.

Faculty Perspectives for the Fifteenth Fellows Forum in Osteoporosis and Metabolic Bone Diseases
Ego Seeman, MD, FRACP, Professor, University of Melbourne, Austin Health, West Heidelberg, Victoria, Australia I think this program is more important than ever now. We have moved into troubling times in many ways, one is the attrition of the founding fathers of the golden age of bone biology. What you are doing is important and it’s a privilege to be part of it.Teresita Bellido, PhD, Professor, University of Arkansas Medical Sciences, Little Rock, Arkansas It will be my honor and pleasure to participate this year again in the Forum. It is just a great program.Bart Clarke, MD, Professor of Medicine, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minnesota Happy to participate in this excellent program for our fellows to encourage their careers in bone and mineral metabolism.
