To better reflect the changing needs of our growing global community of surgeons and scientists, the OTCF is committed to creating and improving more educational and research services. Many of these features are currently under construction and will be added to the Full Membership menu in 2011 and beyond.

Benefits Packages

The OTC Foundation offers members a choice between two benefits packages: The Associate Membership package and Full Membership package. While the Associate Membership package is free, the Full Membership package is available to members worldwide for a nominal fee.
