Summary

  • I am a Board Certified Pediatric Orthopaedic surgeon on staff at Children’s Hospital, where my clinical practice focuses on hip dysplasia and acquired deformities about the hip, spine deformity, cerebral palsy and pediatric trauma. I am a Professor of Orthopaedic Surgery, Harvard Medical School and a Research Professor of Biomedical engineering, Boston University, School of Engineering. The Center for Advanced Orthopaedic Studies, where I am a PI, is a multi-disciplinary core research facility associated with the Departments of Bioengineering at Harvard University, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Boston University, Harvard Medical School and the Harvard Combined Orthopaedic Residency Program. The laboratory focuses on basic and applied research in musculoskeletal biomechanics. My work merges the analytic techniques developed in the Laboratory with the innovative diagnostic and surgical techniques developed at Children’s Hospital for treating musculoskeletal diseases. I have been principal investigator of NIH/NCI RO1, NIH/NIAMS R21, NASA, DoD, private foundations (Whitaker, OREF, Susan B Komen, AO/ASIF, Coulter, POSNA, SRS) and industry sponsored grants. In addition I am a member of the NIH/NIAMS Tissue Engineering Study Section and the SBIR/STTR panel that evaluates orthopaedic devices and biologics.
