Resident Assembly

Submit an Advisory Opinion

For consideration at the Resident Assembly's meeting during the AAOS 2020 Annual Meeting in Orlando, FL proposed Advisory Opinions are due to the AAOS by January 6, 2020. 

Proposed Advisory Opinions submitted by Resident Assembly Delegates or members of the Executive Committee require one sponsor. Proposed Advisory Opinions submitted by Resident Assembly members require the signature of 20 residents.  The Advisory Opinion sponsor is responsible for identifying a spokesperson, someone who can "speak to" the proposed Advisory Opinion during the Resident Assembly Open Forum.

For those who may be unfamiliar with the Advisory Opinion process, you can watch a short video by Andy Jensen, MD, Chair of the Resident Assembly, which will provide details.
