Hand surgery research + scholarly opportunities at Tufts Medical Center
Tufts Medical Center offers fellows access to a gross anatomy lab, a pathology lab and a bio-skills lab, along with an outstanding occupational therapy department located on the clinic floor. Fellows are encouraged to participate in the service’s clinical and basic science research activities, contributing to studies that advance the understanding and treatment of hand, wrist and elbow conditions. Faculty mentors provide guidance throughout the research process, helping fellows develop study design, data analysis, manuscript preparation and presentation skills.
Engagement in research allows fellows to build a strong academic portfolio, refine analytical skills and contribute to innovations in hand surgery while balancing clinical training and hands-on experience.
