Become a Columnist! And, Keep this Mobile Nation Informed and Engaged!

Thank you for your interest in submitting a column to Ortho-pinions – a surgeon-authored column featured on A Nation in Motion website. These columns will give visitors insights into common bone and joint health scenarios that come up on a daily basis in your practice. And, help them “see behind the curtain” to understand an orthopaedic surgeon’s perspective and insight.

All columns will go through an editorial review process with a panel from the Academy’s Communications Cabinet. Click here for our complete editorial guidelines and a sample column. Remember, submissions should have a light and friendly tone.  Think of the audience for this column as a curious patient or neighbor. All published columns will also appear via the Academy’s social media channels and will be linked to media outreach efforts as appropriate. And, once accepted, the column will go into a schedule. We will let you know when your column is “live” on the site.

We hope you share your Ortho-pinion with us!
