Combined 61st NOF Congress and NOV Jaarcongres 2024
We welcome you to the Combined 61st NOF Congress and NOV Jaarcongres in Rotterdam that will take place from Wednesday June 12th till Friday June 14th 2024. The Netherlands Orthopaedic Association (NOV) organizes this bi-annual international congress on behalf of the NOF. We are very honoured with your participation and we are proud to present an excellent, innovative scientific programme. Preceeding this congress (the day before) we will host a review course with exciting lectures and live surgery sessions. Apart from the scientific topics and fruitful discussions, this congress also is a typical social event, where we meet old friends and make new friends. We aim to exchange ideas on the research and the organisation of the NOF-member societies and build bridges between the young and old, the past and the future. Like the city of Rotterdam we embrace diversity. After all, the NOF, as well as the NOV, have a long-standing tradition in this respect.Prijzen

Program
The future of orthopaedics – the combined 61th NOF Congress and NOV Jaarcongres
Medicine, particularly orthopaedics, is changing due to the introduction of new techniques and use of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Therefore the future is now and this was chosen as the theme for the combined 61th NOF Congress and NOV Jaarcongres.
During the three congress days various topics regarding the future of orthopedics will be presented. A broad and interesting program has been composed and goes from diversity to green orthopedics and from trauma care to advanced elective regenerative orthopeadics. Special attention will be given for resident sessions since they are the future of orthopeadics.
