Exploring Nashville with the team at ISTA 2024!

It was a pleasure to host the Insall Travelling Fellows last Friday and show some of our latest research, including our novel arthrometer and implant retrieval system!

Work by Dr. Imhauser and team has received over 500 views since publication! Read it here onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/jo… #ViewsMilestone

Congratulations to Dr. Joaquin Palma Munita and Dr. Brett Steineman for their work being awarded best paper selected by the Ankle and Foot Committee of the Chilean Society of Orthopaedics and Traumatology. Read about their work further here: doi.org/10.1177/107110…

Kicking off ORS with our annual Cameo Cornell / HSS breakfast! Looking forward to seeing the exciting research being presented by our students, engineers, post-docs, and scientists.

Enjoying the scenes and 70 degree sunny weather in downtown Phoenix! #ORS2025

Lots of traffic and engaging conversations happening at the poster session! #ORS2025

Research engineer Kalle Chastain presents her work comparing medialized repair of medial meniscus posterior root tear to anatomical repair. Great work Kalle!

Pretty KNEE(T) watching postdoctoral fellows Reza Pourmodheji and Andrew Pechstein presenting their work at the NIRA-knee session!

Research Engineer David Shamritsky presenting his work evaluating patient reported outcomes and laxity measures using a novel arthrometer. Great job David!

Former ORS presidents Dr. Tim Wright and Dr. Savio Woo with incoming ORS president Dr. Suzanne Maher. #ORS2025 #Generations

Research engineer Clarisse Zigan presenting her work evaluating medial iliofemoral strain and its contribution to hip stability post THA. Nice work Clarisse!

We are so excited for Suzanne Maher, PhD, biomechanics director and HSS Chief Research Officer, to assume her new role as President of the Orthopaedic Research Society board. Congrats Suzanne, well deserved!

It was a pleasure to host such the 2025 BORS/BJR traveling fellows at HSS Biomechanics!

Check out our recent work in the Proceedings of the Hip Society 2024: Robotic-Assisted Surgery Does Not Decrease Prosthetic Impingement in Total Hip Arthroplasty: A Retrieval Analysis - The Journal of Arthroplasty arthroplastyjournal.org/article/S0883-…

We were pleased to host Germana Bahr, General Director of Instituto Nacional de Traumatologia e Ortopedia in Brazil, to tour our laboratory. We have long collaborated with the effort to begin a national retrieval program in Brazil; which is now functional with > 800 devices!

Congratulations to Biomechanics alum Bobby Kent on earning his MD/PhD from the University of Michigan. His thesis: “Spatiotemporal Control of Tendon Healing through Modular, Injectable Hydrogel Composites.” Next stop: Ortho Surgery residency at the University of Minnesota!

Congrats to biomechanics postdoc Sunjung Kim for being selected for this year’s foot & ankle society research scholarship! He will attend the 2025 AOFAS Annual meeting and connect with top foot & ankle surgeons nationwide—a great opportunity for early-career researchers!

Congrats to Katherine Mallett MD, Sara Sacher MS, and Aarti Shenoy PhD on receiving the Philip D. Wilson Award for their study "Beyond the Polyethylene: Severe Debonding Found In a Majority of Recalled Exactech TKA Femoral Components"—outstanding work!👏

Congrats to Mark Amirtharaj, who was awarded Best Presentation in Knee at the West Point Fellow’s Research Symposium yesterday for his Fellows’ Project entitled "Biomechanical Impact of Sagittal Slope Reducing HTO vs. LET: A Computational Modeling Study"!
