Congratulations to the Kolling\u2019s Acting Executive Director Professor Chris Little following his election to the Board of Directors of the Orthopaedic Research Society.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is regarded as the world\u2019s leading orthopaedic research society, representing clinicians and researchers across the scientific spectrum from fundamental science to clinical research and clinical trials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Professor Little, the Director of the Raymond Purves Bone and Joint Research Lab, has been elected to the high-profile, international board for two years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\u201cI\u2019m deeply honoured to have been elected to the board, and excited to be part of this world-leading musculoskeletal research society,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI have been a member of the society for more than 20 years, and it\u2019s been a critical part of my research over that time, providing collaborations and mentors that have shaped my career.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI would like to support the society so it can have the same positive impact on today\u2019s emerging musculoskeletal researchers as it did for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDespite the scale of musculoskeletal diseases across the community, there is a clear need for additional funding and support, and fresh ideas. The sector is often the poor cousin when it comes to key announcements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThere\u2019s a tremendous number of people and organisations working across the musculoskeletal field, and I\u2019m convinced that by working together, we will be in a better position to secure additional funding and improve long-term health outcomes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIt really begins and ends with excellence in research, and if we provide an environment of learning, mentorship and collaboration, and enable great research across the sector, we will make tangible health gains.\u201d <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1736,"menu_order":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_uag_custom_page_level_css":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"research-group-tax":[],"primary-research-area":[],"class_list":["post-1735","news","type-news","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-newsletters"],"acf":[],"uagb_featured_image_src":{"full":["https:\/\/kollinginstitute.org.au\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/thumb_Blog_Chris-Little-cropped1_w550_h380_fcrop.webp",550,380,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/kollinginstitute.org.au\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/thumb_Blog_Chris-Little-cropped1_w550_h380_fcrop-150x150.webp",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/kollinginstitute.org.au\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/thumb_Blog_Chris-Little-cropped1_w550_h380_fcrop-300x207.webp",300,207,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/kollinginstitute.org.au\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/thumb_Blog_Chris-Little-cropped1_w550_h380_fcrop.webp",550,380,false],"large":["https:\/\/kollinginstitute.org.au\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/thumb_Blog_Chris-Little-cropped1_w550_h380_fcrop.webp",550,380,false],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/kollinginstitute.org.au\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/thumb_Blog_Chris-Little-cropped1_w550_h380_fcrop.webp",550,380,false],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/kollinginstitute.org.au\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/thumb_Blog_Chris-Little-cropped1_w550_h380_fcrop.webp",550,380,false]},"uagb_author_info":{"display_name":"ict-wordpress-support@sydney.edu.au","author_link":"https:\/\/kollinginstitute.org.au\/staging\/author\/ict-wordpress-supportsydney-edu-au\/"},"uagb_comment_info":0,"uagb_excerpt":"Congratulations to the Kolling\u2019s Acting Executive Director Professor Chris Little following his election to the Board of Directors of the Orthopaedic Research Society.
