The IOF University Network, a new subset of the CNS membership, will further expand our network and help IOF to better engage with leading universities worldwide. As well as potentially increasing collaboration on scientific and research activities, the initiative will also serve to establish stronger links with rising stars in the field of bone health.

Our aim is that University affiliation with the IOF will:
•  encourage young researchers to pursue studies in the field of osteoporosis and musculoskeletal diseases;
•  provide young researchers with training and the opportunity to engage with IOF experts, helping to support the individual development as future key opinion leaders;
•  foster the development of innovative research projects.

Institutions that become part of the IOF University Network will join as Allied Members of the IOF Committee of National Societies and will be offered free membership. They will have access to a wide range of benefits, which you will find listed in the attached brochure.

Detailed information about the IOF University Network as well as the dedicated application form for Universities can be accessed here.
