Description

Benjamin W Sheffer, Verena M Schreiber, and Rachel M Thompson recount a three week traveling fellowship for children's bone surgeons across Europe in spring 2026. Every two years, the Pediatric Orthopaedic Society of North America sends three members to European centers, hosted by their European counterpart society. Their 2026 account moves through sites in the Netherlands and Belgium and ends in Sevilla, Spain.

The fellows watched new surgical methods, compared how each country's system backs patient care, and traded research ideas with host teams. Stays included a lake house near Amsterdam and a welcome dinner cooked by the European society's president. The trip closed with the European society's annual meeting. The authors frame the tour as time to think big with peers, build cross border ties, and urge the next group of members to apply.
