The 14th Annual SSF Spine Residents & Fellows Course is specifically designed for orthopedic fellows and senior neurosurgical residents who are going to practice spinal surgery.  Since the transition into any fellowship can often be challenging for both trainee and mentor, we hope this training course provides a useful starting point for this important phase of training.  This course will cover the latest advances in complex spinal disorders such as minimally invasive techniques, trauma, deformity, tumors, infection and imaging, as well as radiosurgery. The course objective is to bring orthopaedic and neurological surgeons-in-training together to advance the art and science of modern spinal care.

In 2014, Dr. Oskouian began working with Dr. Ombachi and Dr. Otieno to performa number of spinal surgeries in Kenyatta National Hospital. In addition, they have formed a strong partnership to begin offering medical education conferences and hands-on cadaveric surgical trainings to their medical students and staff.

This is a unique fellowship in that it is a combined orthopedic spine and neuro-surgical spine fellowship. There is a wide array of pathology giving a large and diverse perspective on spine management.
