Gonzalo Mariscal has been awarded for his surgical work at the 14th edition of the “Young European Scientific Meeting,” a European medical student congress.
The study, entitled ‘Orthopedic treatment and early weightbearing for bimalleolar ankle fractures. Quality of life and complications’, was supervised by the dean of Medicine at the UCV, Carlos Barrios, and by Dr. Alejandro Lorente of the Ramón y Cajal Hospital in Madrid.
With the research, “we have managed to demonstrate, through a multicenter study, a new procedure that increases the quality of life in a considerable number of patients with a specific type of fracture,” Mariscal explained.
“This award reflects the steady and humane work that we carry out at the UCV Institute for Musculoskeletal Disease Research, in addition to being a great personal motivation to continue doing what I love most, which is research,” emphasized the UCV student.
The European congress has been attended by 300 medical students from 22 countries and three continents. In the field of surgery, 40 papers were submitted, of which six were presented.
