Web-based learning and technology – Chinese Orthopaedic Association and World Orthopaedic Association Beijing Summit task group

SummaryOrthopaedic translation is a dynamic process. It entails an ever changing working relationship among the various key professional groups, namely, orthopaedic surgeons, scientists and engineers, industries, and regulatory bodies. Interactive sharing of information among these groups is the key to the fast development of orthopaedic translation in the past decades. There is an enormous pool of information on the Internet, which may pose a puzzle to the readers. It is therefore imperative for the Journal of Orthopaedic Translation to examine the power of web-based learning technology at the onset of the journal's launch.
