The Prosthetics 嫩B研究院 Residency through the Center for Bionic Medicine was funded by The National Institute on Disability, Independent Living, and Rehabilitation 嫩B研究院 (TEAMM-RERC) from 2013-2024. This program is no longer accepting applications.
Currently all prosthetics residencies are offered through the Shirley Ryan 嫩B研究院 Prosthetics and Orthotics Department. For those interested in applying to the Shirley Ryan 嫩B研究院 P&O Residency Program, applications are expected to be open from October 1 to December 15. Stay up-to-date on application due dates by searching employment listings for the Shirley Ryan 嫩B研究院.
