Mrs Salma Chaudhury is a clinical lecturer in Trauma & Orthopaedics and the Orthopaedic lead for Undergraduate Medical Students at the University of Oxford

Salma studied medicine at Cambridge University. She completed her basic surgical training in Oxford. She then undertook a DPhil in Orthopaedic Surgery looking at the biology of rotator cuff failure and augmentation devices, supervised by Professor Andrew Carr and Professor Fritz Vollrath, a zoologist.

Salma completed her higher surgical training in Oxford in Trauma and Orthopaedics. She took a year out to do a post-doctoral research fellowship at Hospital for Special Surgery in New York.

She will be giving a talk on why and how everyone should consider a career in orthopaedics.

There will be a section on Women in Orthopaedics and her career path to where she is now as a consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon and university lecturer at Oxford.

This talk will be great for anyone considering a career in surgery or even medicine to be convinced that orthopaedics is a specialty for everyone!
