Research themes

  • ACL and the knee

    4

    Anterior cruciate ligament injury and reconstruction, including quadriceps tendon autograft, injury mechanism, and outcomes in skeletally immature athletes.

  • Shoulder

    3

    Rotator cuff, deltoid biomechanics, and shoulder function after injury and reconstruction.

  • Elbow

    4

    Elbow instability, dislocation, and ligament reconstruction, including surgical versus non-surgical treatment and return to sport.

  • UCL and baseball

    1

    Ulnar collateral ligament injury, throwing athletes, and performance after surgery.

  • Return to sport

    3

    What determines return to sport after injury and surgery, and what "returning" actually means.

  • Patient understanding and health literacy

    6

    Whether patients understand what clinicians tell them about pain, opioids, and treatment — and what changes when the explanation improves.

  • AI and patient information

    1

    Whether AI-generated answers to orthopaedic patient questions are accurate and readable at a level patients can actually use.

  • Imaging and ultrasound

    4

    MRI and ultrasound assessment of ligament and tendon injury, including reliability of measurement techniques.

  • Orthopaedic trauma outcomes

    5

    Fracture care, timing of surgery, and recovery after orthopaedic trauma.

  • Frailty and risk stratification

    4

    Frailty indices as predictors of outcome after hip and knee arthroplasty.

  • Foot and ankle

    8

    Ligament, tendon and bony pathology of the foot and ankle, including outcomes after revision surgery.
