Ms. Anna Schiefer is an emerging researcher whose work focuses on fracture-related infections, prosthetic joint infections, and regenerative approaches in orthopaedics and traumatology. Her research has been presented at several major international conferences, including the Fracture-Related Infections Workshop and Prosthetic Joint Infections Workshop hosted by the PRO-IMPLANT Foundation, as well as the 6th Congress of the European Society of Tissue Regeneration in Orthopaedics and Traumatology and multiple annual meetings of the European Bone and Joint Infection Society. She has contributed posters and oral presentations highlighting key findings from her doctoral research on infection characteristics and outcomes following intramedullary nailing in femur and tibia fractures. Her scholarly engagement began early, with participation in academic meetings such as the Material Driven Regeneration Annual Meeting, Orthopedic Science Day at Maastricht University, the Omkadering van Jonge Onderzoekers Initiative at KU Leuven, and the MOSA biomedical research conference. She has received competitive scholarships from the PRO-IMPLANT Foundation to support cohort studies on fracture-related and prosthetic joint infections, reflecting the clinical relevance of her work. Her contributions have earned notable recognition, including the Silver Prize for Free Papers at the 6th ESTROT Congress. Her 2026 journal article in Injury further underscores her contributions to infection research within trauma surgery.
