Are you currently in training or studying? Are you passionate about the world of orthopaedic treatment and care and do you have innovative ideas, exciting research results, or clever solutions from workshops—or directly from patient care?

Would you like to submit an abstract for OTWorld 2026, but are unsure about the exact process and how to write a compelling abstract? Then this webinar recording is just right for you starting in August 2025!

Together with speaker Dipl.-Ing. (FH) Merkur Alimusaj (Graduate Engineer - University of Applied Sciences), we will take a look at the following topics:

• Information about OTWorld
• Insight into submission types, topics, and presentation types
• The submission tool
• Submission content: Designing a compelling abstract

• Insights into the review process with practical examples

The goal: to eliminate uncertainties and give you the support you need, so that nothing stands in the way of your successful submission.

On 16 July 2025, we’re hosting an informational webinar in German specifically for first-time speakers. To ensure our international audience doesn’t miss out, we’re providing a recording of the webinar available in early August – complete with English subtitles.
