Research Topic

Examined whether a deficient cellular response to mechanical loading could explain why ACL allografts are more likely to fail in younger, more-active patients.

Patient Impact

Pivoting to focus on the findings regarding differences in outcomes between males and females to study why ACLs fail at a higher rate in females than males.
