Our article on a brief introduction to the design process for orthopaedic implants is now published in BJR. The typical process from design, fabrication, engineering analysis, biological and clinical analysis, marketplace evaluation, and iterativere design. 🤓 boneandjoint.org.uk/Article/10.1...

Happy Eid Mubarak to all who are celebrating this festive event! 🎉 Thanks to USRA summer intern, Arham Aziz for pulling this post together! #Eid #festive #family #friends #community #joy #reflection

Better late than never: Congratulations to orthopedic resident, Jonathan Lin who did a wonderful job presenting his poster on his systematic review results of #ACDF in the #cervical #spine at the Schulich #Resident #Research #Day! Well done, Jon :)! Well done, Jon!

Thank you #ICCB2025 for hosting us in #RomeItaly. Our study benchmarked state of the art CNNs commonly used in clinical #ultrasound imaging for orthopedic fracture care; we report high variability among professions regarded as #experts & low inter-annotator reliability for bone fracture features!

A very productive first day including a lab tour, one-on-one project meetings and lunch together with our new students! #FridayProgress!!
