We close out the DOCSF 2025 conference with a powerful final session recorded live in San Francisco.

Mohan Nair (Emerge) takes the stage to share a compelling message about what it really takes to drive innovation in healthcare. In a landscape shaped by AI, automation, and rapid change, he encourages us to reframe ourselves not just as innovators but as explorers, curious, courageous, and ready to lower the cost of transformation by keeping things simple and impactful.

Following Nair’s closing keynote, we present the inaugural DOCSF–OREF Poster Awards, honoring outstanding contributions to orthopedic research. Hosted by Fabrizio Billi, PhD (UCLA) and Lee Grossman (CEO, OREF), the awards celebrate the top three research posters selected from 25 submissions.

These sessions offer both inspiration and grounded insights into how small, meaningful actions can spark big change. A fitting close to a conference focused on real-world digital innovation in orthopedics.
