WFO's 'Rising Star' Scholarship Recipient at the 18th International Symposium
At the 18th International Symposium we have the pleasure to host the recipient of the World Federation of Orthodontists inaugural ‘Rising Star’ Travel Scholarship, Tatiana Porcel.
The World Federation of Orthodontists (WFO) ‘Rising Star’ Travel Scholarship was established by the WFO Executive Committee in 2022, and named after former WFO President, Doctor Roberto Justus. The annual award may be presented to WFO Fellows, no older than 38 years of age at the time the application is submitted, who in the judgment of the WFO, have excelled in the field of Orthodontics and should be supported to present their research and/or clinical work internationally. The WFO would like to encourage such Fellows to present lectures at an affiliate national and/or regional meeting that is not their own. The intent of the award is to encourage younger WFO Fellows to participate in international settings and to create more exposure for themselves. The WFO wishes to ensure a bright future for our profession by supporting colleagues with leadership potential in their early professional years.
