Application route / cycleAnnual SICOT call. The SICOT fellowships page still labels this fellowship "(open)" but states a deadline of 15 September 2026, which has now passed; the date of the next call is not published. Only one SICOT fellowship application per year is allowed. Conflicting official information: The Ain Shams page leaves the deadline blank, while the SICOT fellowships list labels it open with a deadline of 15 September 2026 (already passed).
The cited evidence does not provide a programme-specific faculty roster that OrthoFellow can safely publish. Open the official source or submit an institutional correction; names and portraits are never inferred from department membership.
