Thank you to Zimmer for inviting me to attend their advanced shoulder symposium as faculty in Sydney, February 2018. I am really looking forward to attending this meeting. They have put together a highly experienced national faculty along with two extremely experienced and knowledgeable international shoulder surgeons: Prof John Sperling and Prof Quinn Throckmorton who I have been fortunate enough to have visited and spent time with them learning new shoulder arthroplasty techniques in their operating theatres this year in The Mayo Clinic Rochester and Memphis Tennessee respectively. I am excited to be a part of the meeting.
