Welcome from the Co-Chairs


Dear Orthopaedic Sports Medicine Fellows:

Join us for the 25th International Sports Medicine Fellows Conference to be held February 7-8, 2025 in Carlsbad, California.

The mission of the ISMF Conference is to educate, train, and motivate sports medicine fellows on complex and innovative concepts, technology, and techniques. This course provides a unique opportunity to participate in the largest gathering of 2024-2025 Orthopaedic Sports Medicine Fellows.

The two-day program is designed to enhance the knowledge and skill of orthopaedic sports medicine fellows. High level lectures and case presentations teach the work-up, management, and rehab techniques utilized by the international experts who comprise the faculty. Live surgical demonstrations and hands-on workshops provide an interactive experience for fellows to practice techniques with guidance from top leaders in the field.

ISMF Conference Highlights:

  • Early Bird Registration Fee - ONLY $250!
  • Hands-on Cadaveric Articular Cartilage Treatment and Patellofemoral Workshops
  • Interactive Case Presentations
  • World Renowned Faculty

This course is an exceptional opportunity to interact with world renowned international faculty who are committed to fellow education. The 2025 ISMF Conference provides the skills needed to handle complex cases during the transition from fellow to attending physician.

We know you will want to join us next February in Carlsbad, California!

Come celebrate 25 years of fellows’ education!
