Education

Research can be a powerful tool for enacting change through education. We strongly believe in educating the current and next generation of pioneers in the field of arthritis research. The Stone Research Foundation is committed to expanding educational opportunities from a local to a global scale.

Internships

From our universally accessible and innovative surgical technique videos to our internship program designed to mentor students with a unique range of academic and personal backgrounds, we strive to provide opportunities to diversify the field of research through education and innovation. We are actively involved in hosting annual meetings to connect with international thought leaders while supporting our interns who are the next generation of physicians and researchers.

The Stone Research Foundation and The Stone Clinic host US and international MDs, visiting scientists, medical and nursing students, and graduate and undergraduate students to provide comprehensive exposure to the techniques and methods that we have researched, developed, and continue to improve.

Associations

Meniscus Transplant Study Group

The Meniscus Cartilage Transplantation Study Group (MTSG) was formed in 1986 by a combination of orthopaedic surgeons, veterinary surgeons, and scientists to help promote the science of meniscus cartilage transplantation and to evaluate its transfer from basic science research to clinical practice. Dr. Kevin Stone is a founding member of the MTSG. The Stone Research Foundation (SRF) is a driving force behind the MTSG; they host, facilitate, and fund the meeting held in conjunction with the annual meeting of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS). The group has now expanded to include the European Meniscal Transplantation Group (EMTG). Over 4,000 human allograft meniscus cartilages have been transplanted since 1986.
