ABOS Announces Four Exceptional Residents for Advisory Panel

Posted On: June 11, 2025

Chapel Hill, NC—The American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery (ABOS) has selected four outstanding orthopaedic surgery residents to participate as the fifth cohort of the ABOS Resident Advisory Panel. Many highly qualified orthopaedic residents from across the country applied for two-year terms on the Panel.

The new members of the ABOS Resident Advisory Panel are:

  • Ashlyn Fitch, MD, Boston Medical Center
  • Michael Mastroianni, MD, MS, Columbia University Medical Center
  • Mehdi Talle, DO, Community Memorial Health System
  • Marisa Ulrich, MD, Mayo Clinic

This cohort will join the fourth group of Advisory Panel members who were selected last year:

  • Hannah Gibbs, MD, Walter Reed National Military Medical Center
  • Noah Harrison, MD, MS, Washington University in St. Louis
  • Kelly McFarlane, MD, MBA, Stanford University
  • Eric Taleghani, MD, University of Cincinnati

The ABOS Resident Advisory Panel assists the ABOS by providing information which is used to support orthopaedic residents across the country. They work with the ABOS Graduate Medical Education Committee and the ABOS Communications Committee. One of the main goals of the Advisory Panel is to identify and work on a project each year that will benefit orthopaedic residents across the country.

All applicants submitted an application, curriculum vitae (CV), personal statement, and a letter of recommendation from their residency program director. These were reviewed by members of the ABOS Board of Directors who serve on the ABOS GME Committee.

“I am excited for the Board to work with this exceptional group of residents for the next two years,” said ABOS Executive Director David F. Martin, MD. “The Board has been lucky to work with the members departing the panel who advised the ABOS over the last two years.”
