The Foundation for Orthopaedic Research and Education (FORE) is dedicated to engaging in orthopaedic research and education to improve the diagnosis, treatment, and care of all patients with musculoskeletal disorders. FORE was founded by the surgeons at the Florida Orthopaedic Institute in 1999 as part of their commitment to providing world-class orthopaedic care to their patients. The foundation was established as a way to improve the care of patients with musculoskeletal disorders through research and education. While FORE operates independently from FOI, we collaborate with their physicians on numerous research and education endeavors because of their expertise and reputation in their fields.
