The Gary and Linda Friedlaender and the Julie Samora Away Rotation Scholarships

Thanks to the generosity of Pride Ortho's founding President Dr. Qusai Hammouri and founding member Dr. Julie Samora, we will also be offering scholarships to medical students completing orthopedic away-rotations at other institutions. Just tell us where you are going and why in the application below! All away rotations must be set up and approved through the program where you will be rotating. Mentorship and a letter of recommendation will be provided to all scholarship recipients if interested. 

Dr Gary Friedlaedner is chair emeritus of Orthopaedics at Yale. For the past 25 years Gary and Linda have held a safe space in their home for diversity in orthopedics through their monthly book club. This scholarship is named in appreciation to their DEI work.
