Brush aside your hesitancy for Research
Journal Title: Journal of Trauma and Orthopaedic Surgery - Year 2018, Vol 0, Issue 0
Abstract
Dear MOA Members, ere has always been a lot of resistance to research and publications specially in minds of orthopaedic surgeons in periphery or orthopaedic surgeons in Private practice. During MOACON 2018, many have approached regarding their inhibitions regarding writing a scientic manuscript or conducting a research project. One of the major reasons was that most of these surgeons have never wrien or published any studies and they are felling reluctant to take up the project. is is also part because we have been offered no training or initiative towards research in our academic curriculum. is is a genuine problem and quite difficult to tackle, however we at MOA are working to address this issue for our members. Research training courses are being offered to our members during MOACON and a part is covered in faculty training program. e talks in faculty training program not only offer insights into research but also cover the aspects of publication and presentation in a conference. We will try to increase the number of these outreach opportunities to MOARCONS too. However, we working unilaterally will not gain us anything. We need support and co-operation from you. Please ask your residents or consultants also to contribute to research and publish with JTO. At JTO once your article is accepted, we will offer advice regarding how to improve your article. Even if your article is rejected, we will send you a proper review, which will have suggestions on how to improve the manuscript and how to correct the research. JTO is the Journal of all MOA members and all members should utilise this opportunity to publish and ourish Dr Ashok Shyam Editor: Journal of Trauma Surgery
