The Orthopaedic Research Society (ORS) and the Orland Bethel Family Musculoskeletal Research Center (BMRC) have joined together to offer a fellowship to new-in-career scientists. The BMRC/ORS Fellowship prioritizes support of early career scientists to produce breakthrough treatments for musculoskeletal ailments.
Program Description
The Orland Bethel Family Musculoskeletal Research Center (BMRC) was created in 2024 by the Orland Bethel Family Foundation’s gift, matched by the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine. The BMRC enables the University of Pittsburgh to elevate its study of musculoskeletal disorders, including bone and muscular diseases, degenerative arthritis, fragility fractures, spinal pathology, cartilage and tendon pathology by attracting and retaining top scientists to advance leading-edge research. The BMRC prioritizes support of early career scientists, both within and outside of the University of Pittsburgh, to produce breakthrough treatments for musculoskeletal ailments.
The goal of the BMRC/ORS Fellowship Program is to support the generation of critical preliminary data for larger grant applications, leading to breakthrough treatments for musculoskeletal disease. Two levels of BMRC/ORS Fellowship support are currently available — $20,000 awards for postdoctoral scholars or medical residents and $30,000 awards for junior faculty members — to support translational basic science and clinical musculoskeletal research.
BMRC is dedicated to improving diversity, equity, inclusion in musculoskeletal research. Investigators who are underrepresented in medicine or STEM fields are encouraged to apply.
