ISHA Trainee Awards Programme 

The ISHA – The Hip Preservation Society Trainee Awards Programme is committed to recognising and honouring young researchers whose work has contributed to better understanding and communication within the field of hip preservation. 

The 2025 ISHA Trainee Awards will be The ISHA Basic Science Award and The Richard N. Villar Excellence in Clinical Research Award. 

The ISHA Trainee Awards were created with the intention to stimulate and reward younger researchers who contribute high-quality data and presentations. Thus, residents and fellows with a study related to hip preservation are encouraged to apply for this award. 

Judged by an ISHA-selected panel, the 2025 Trainee Awards will be awarded to the trainee who delivers the best oral presentation during the Annual Scientific Meeting, and will be presented at the Closing Session.
