About Us
Evidence base through collaboration
ODIN International is a global collaboration of centres specialising in the management of prosthetic joint infections (PJIs).
Our mission is to advance the understanding, prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of PJIs through the power of big data and collaborative research.
A core objective of the network is to establish a large-scale PJI registry—enabling us to answer critical clinical questions that require robust, high-volume datasets.
We are an inclusive and growing community, and we welcome new centres who share our commitment to improving outcomes for patients affected by PJIs.
Our Logo
ODIN’s logo features a raven, a symbol drawn from Norse mythology. In these ancient stories, the ravens Huginn ("thought") and Muninn ("mind") flew across the world each day, gathering knowledge and bringing it back to Odin.
This imagery reflects our mission—fostering a global collaboration of thought and mind to advance understanding and improve outcomes in prosthetic joint infections (PJIs).
Just as the ravens connected distant parts of the world through knowledge, ODIN aims to unite centres across the globe in a shared pursuit of progress.
The logo was designed by one of our residents, Bryn Gilbertson.
