<p><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Researchers at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine are conducting a research study on the opinions and attitudes of female-identifying pre-medical students toward orthopaedic surgery.
 The study consists of a survey that should take 5-10 minutes to complete. Those who complete the survey will be given a Zoom link to a panel where female orthopaedic surgeons will speak about their experiences as women in the field, followed by a Q&A session
