Incredible to hear the experiences of so many talented surgeons on our panel at Trauma Night, including: Prof Gary Hoffman and Dr Anthony Febbo, Dr Kirrily Warren, Dr Kirsten Miteff, Prof Zsolt Balogh and Dr Daniel Benz, and Dr Mitchell Hansen.

Good morning Brisbane! Excited for the OWL event today ‘Through the Looking Glass - A Glimpse into a Career in Orthopaedics’ - an event aimed at female junior doctors and medical students interested in orthopaedics #IlooklikeASurgeon AOA

Through the looking glass - a glimpse into a career in orthopaedic surgery gave female medical students, junior doctors and PHOs the chance to talk to surgeons about their careers and try their hands at practical rotations. See photos from the event: facebook.com/pg/australiano…

Incredible to hear the keynote address from the very accomplished Dr Nikki Stamp FRACS at the 40 Years of Medicine lecture series! An inspiring and engaging discussion of gender equity in surgery and medicine.

Very excited to be announcing the new 2018-2019 ASSA executive! Congratulations to the new team and look forward to an amazing year ahead! ASSC 2022 William Ridley Mahsa Sarrami Grace Dennis Bahjat Alirani Shebani Farik

Amazing to attend the AOA #AOAOWL event today and hear from a range of surgeons about the support and opportunities that exist for females in orthopaedics. Great to learn some practical skills too!

Resilience does not mean having to tolerate or accept disrespectful behaviour - Dr. Ken Loi #ASSALeadershipDay2019 #OperateWithRespect

Excited to be at Australasian Students' Surgical Association (ASSA) Leadership and Collaborative Research Day to hear from students and surgeons visiting from around Australia and New Zealand about leadership and the future of surgery 🤩 #ASSALeadershipDay2019 Mahsa Sarrami Shebani Farik William Ridley

“The biggest goal should be to increase the diversity,... see who is left behind, and lift them up.” Inspiring words from Dr Atkinson on the ‘Surgeons of Tomorrow’ panel on how we can work together to achieve change in Surgery. #ASSALeadershipDay2019 AOA RACSurgeons

Some of my best role models! Great day at Australasian Students' Surgical Association (ASSA) Leadership Day

Yes - because they are often inaccurate. Female students are turned away from Orthopaedics by non-Orthopaedic doctors telling them “It’s a boy’s club” “Don’t you want a family?” “Are you strong enough?” The “hidden curriculum!” Orthopaedics is a great career for anyone.

Looking forward to ASSC 2022 2020 this weekend! 🤩 #assc2020

Really interesting to partake in ASSC 2022 research breakouts, and hear the project ideas of other students around Australia and NZ. A nice virtual substitute for being able to meet and engage with peers in real life! #assc2020

Another weekend, another excellent online surgical event by Australasian Students' Surgical Association (ASSA)! So great to have access to speakers as accomplished as Dr Ruth Mitchell (she/her/ella), Abidarrin Dzikri and Prof Fiona Wood from the comfort of home.

Feeling grateful to have heard Carrie Kollias MD FRCSC MBA speak tonight at Australasian Students' Surgical Association (ASSA) event. Reminded how valuable it is to see female role models within orthopaedics!
