About

Global Elbow Network (GEN) is an organization of healthcare professionals who collaborate to improve the practice of elbow surgery and care around the world. Our mission is to advance elbow care worldwide. Our vision is that the Global Elbow Network (GEN) is an inclusive global network of elbow professionals who collaborate to foster education, research, and discovery.

Why GEN?

There are profound global disparities in the understanding and treatment of elbow problems. Elbow experts have limited experience with the problems faced by surgeons in under-resourced regions (neglected trauma, inadequate equipment), where they lack access to educational resources and opportunities.

The solution for these unmet needs is to bring people together from these divided groups, so that we may develop innovative ways to advance the subspecialty by collaborative global education, research and discovery. Join the Global Elbow Network today to be part of this collaboration at globalelbow.net/join.
