Show Notes
Welcome to the OrthoJOE podcast with Dr. Marc Swiontkowski and Dr. Mohit Bhandari. In this episode of OrthoJOE, we’ll be talking about the Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery (JBJS) as well as Orthoevidence, our two publications which both have the goals of synthesizing information and making it digestible for the public and professionals in the industry. Today we’re also talking about the impact of COVID-19 on orthopaedic surgery, the speed at which information was disseminated, as well as the publishing standards on this information as it was released to the public.
If you have any comments, questions, or topics you would like us to cover, please feel free to reach out so we can read your messages and possibly answer your questions during the next episode of OrthoJOE.
