How A Traveling Fellowship Shapes Orthopaedic Leaders
Monday, 23 February, 2026
Ready to rethink how orthopaedic leaders are made? We sit down with Rex C. Haydon, MD, PhD, FAOA, archaeologist turned musculoskeletal oncologist and second president‑elect of the American Orthopaedic Association—to trace the ABC Traveling Fellowship from its post‑war roots to its modern role as a launchpad for mid‑career transformation. Across five to six weeks and multiple continents, the fellowship pairs deep academic exchange with the kind of shared experience that forges lifelong mentors, collaborators, and friends. From resourceful solutions in international settings to the power of hosting fellows and paying forward the mentorship you received, this episode makes a compelling case for leaving your comfort zone to grow your career, your community, and your impact.
