Welcome to POSICON 2017 !

The Vidarbha Orthopaedic Society is privileged to host the 23rd annual paediatric orthopaedic society conference POSICON at Nagpur from 26th to 28th of January 2017 and pleased to welcome you for an academic marathon and get together.

"The way of success is the way of continuous pursuit of knowledge."

POSI, since its inception in 1994, has been striving hard not only to enhance and share the treasure of knowledge amongst the orthopaedic fraternity, but also taking measures to practice and implement it so as to improve our most wonderful natural resource...our children.

At Nagpur, we aim to continue and strengthen this tradition and provide you the company of some of the best paediatric orthopaedic surgeons from around the globe. Our focus is to create a platform for you to share your experience, discuss your views and hone your surgical skills.

Nagpur is famous not only for its oranges but also for the rich wildlife nearby and surely a jungle safari at the end of the conference would be a refreshing and rejuvenating experience. So book your date with the brains and the beasts!

Hope to see you soon.

Regards,

Team VOS

As we draw closer to the Silver Jubilee celebrations of our beloved association, it is my pleasant duty & honour to welcome all delegates to the 23rd Annual Conference of the Paediatric Orthopaedic Society of India, which will be held in Nagpur – the central-most city of India. Year upon year, hardcore Paediatric Orthopaedic enthusiasts & interested general Orthopods converge together for an academic feast – to hear international experts in the subject impart wisdom, to showcase their scientific research through presentation to their peers & to celebrate their friendship forged through a common interest. This year, Viraj Shingade, the Organizing Secretary of POSICON 2017 and his Team, have taken a bold yet much-desired decision to create a fine balance between academics & social bonding. By combining the Basic & Advanced workshops to a single day and without compromising on the intense academics that we have come to expect from POSICON, we now have an extra day on the weekend to socialize over a drink or two and renew old friendships. The Tiger Safari will be an experience second to none, and I urge all of you to use this opportunity to interact with the faculty, establish new acquaintances and take a break from Orthopaedics for a day!

See you all soon in the Orange City of Nagpur!

Dr. Alaric Aroojis
Secretary, POSI
