programs and educational institutions.

OMeGA manages grant requests from educational institutions and programs. Grant recipients and allocations are determined by the independent board and review committees composed of sub-specialty experts. These surgeons evaluate education programs based on objective criteria which include, among others, goals and objectives of the program, program accreditation status, ratio of faculty to fellows, quality of resources and facilities and recent published papers by fellows.

"There was a need for an independent, conflict of interest free third party administrator of graduate medical education grants," said C. McCollister Evarts, MD, President of OMeGA Medical Grants Association. "This was OMeGA's charter grant cycle and we thank Zimmer for having the vision to support our ambitious new endeavor. OMeGA's first cycle was an unqualified success and we look forward to an even better next cycle of grant-giving."

The OMeGA online grant management system will be open for applications for the 2010-2011 academic year starting January 4, 2010. More information on the available grants and selection process is available at www.omegamedicalgrants.org.
