Check out the Timothy Stephens Orthopaedic Fellowship (http://www.uhhospitals.org/tabid/5386/Default.aspx)
For an entire academic year, the fellow will be embedded in the educational, surgical, and research activity of Case Western Reserve University's Orthopaedic Residency Program. Under the supervision of distinguished orthopaedic faculty, he/she will participate with current orthopaedic residents in lectures, grand rounds, clinics, surgical procedures, and basic research. The fellow will also have the opportunity to attend and present at national and regional conferences, including the annual Orthopaedic Research Society meeting, American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgery (AAOS) conventions, and the J. Robert Gladden Society Luncheon, where the fellow will have the opportunity to network with other medical students attending the annual AAOS convention.
The Timothy L. Stephens Jr., MD, Orthopaedic Fellowship will provide:
Also, just the the Society of Black Academic Surgeons (http://www.sbas.net) is there for those pursing the GSurg track, the J. R. Gladden Society (http://www.gladdensociety.org/web/index.html) is there for those minorities who are interested in orthopaedics.
There is also a non-profit association that is affiliated with the J. Robert Gladden Orthopaedic Society called Nth Dimensions: http://www.nthdimensions.org. These folks basically have grants and scholarship money for minority students interested in orthopaedics to help with: 1) summer research after their 1st year, 2) to help with housing at the national AAOS meeting, 3) to help with flight and housing costs incurred while interviewing for othopaedics, 4) and to help with the cost of orthopaedic academic books that you will have to buy once you match into ortho. Its pretty awesome and anybody interested to check out the link.
