Ortho Forge Discussion HighlightsHighlights from the Ortho Forge Community. This is the article I wanted to go over for this newsletter. Something we really care about at Ortho Conditioning! Some of the points brought up in the article are obvious, but they are a good reminder for both mentors and mentees.

Coaching and advising can be helpful, but they are not what real mentorship is like. They are generally more one-way communication and typically do not last over the long term.. The description of mentorship is described as, “Mentors serve as role models, advocates, and friends”. Current landscape of in orthopedic surgery mentorship

Ortho NewsHere is a case that inspired us to look up NuVasive’s Precise Bone Transport System. | |

NuVasive is a Company led by Chris Barry, Chief Executive Officer. The company supports surgeons with best-in-class technology and a highly trained clinical team that help enable improved patient outcomes with the vision “Change patient’s life every minute”. It is committed to advance less invasive surgery and integrate enabling technology in every procedure. Precice Bone Transport system is one of the innovative solutions by NuVasive. It is the all-internal solution intentionally designed to treat segmental bone defects up to 10 cm. The built-in dual slot provides stability to support the transport of more complex segmental defects. The system also offers a simplistic approach for both surgeons and the patients. Hence, it is preferred by the latter as it is generally less painful, easier to manage physical therapy, and often offers improved cosmesis. • Antegrade femur piriformis straight • Antegrade femur trochanter 10° bend • Retrograde femur straight • Antegrade tibia 10° bend Tech, Investing, EntrepreneurshipWhat are Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs)? | |

A game-changing form of organization that will open up so many new opportunities for global collaboration and coordination; empowers online communities to deploy money in new, efficient, and egalitarian ways to achieve shared goals. It’s the ultimate combination of capitalism and progressivism. Entrepreneurs who enable DAOs can be successful if the community excels at governance, everyone shares in the benefits. The Billion User Table: The “Login” is the gateway to the internet, and it’s about to get decentralized (Link)Is the login gateway to the internet and it is about to be decentralized. According to Jon Stokes, blockchain technology has the potential to move us away from a future where different firms create their own segregated user tables and toward a world where the entire Internet shares a single user table. There is a single decentralized user data store accessible via an open protocol and a decentralized network of storage nodes, rather than a decentralized network of user data silos connected via APIs. Decentralization at the datastore implementation layer and recentralization at the datastore access layer are represented by the identity-hosting blockchain. Hence, the temptation to take advantage of blockchain-sized network effects will be so great, that companies will default to putting data on-chain rather than keeping it siloed. However, the most important thing your users table does for you is provide you access to network effects, which offer you some lock-in. The more users your platform has, the more value it has for each individual user, and the more value it has for each individual user, the easier it is to recruit new users, and the more difficult it is for any one user to leave (since leaving means giving up everything). The bottom line: By removing the prospect of users-table-centric network effects, completely up-ends the entire landscape of API-based protocols. The public blockchain amounts to a single, massive users table for the entire Internet, and the next wave of distributed applications will be built on top of it. |
