The Iowa Orthopaedic Research Foundation was established in 2011 to fund community-based clinical research to improve orthopedic surgery. During its first year, the organization raised around $30,000, most from participating Iowa orthopedic surgeons, according to the report.
The Foundation also encourages collaboration with medical students and residents at the University of Iowa.
