Specializations

Orthopedic Trauma & Fracture Healing

Investigates the biological and mechanical determinants of bone repair after high‑energy injuries, aiming to improve surgical fixation and biologic support.

  • bone union
  • intramedullary nailing
  • external fixation
  • osteogenic growth factors

Collaborates with trauma surgeons to translate findings into clinical protocols.

Joint Reconstruction & Cartilage Repair

Focuses on regenerative strategies for articular surfaces, targeting early osteoarthritis and post‑traumatic cartilage loss.

  • cartilage defect of the knee joint
  • autologous chondrocyte implantation
  • microfracture technique
  • biomimetic scaffolds

Integrates imaging biomarkers to monitor repair quality.

Plastic Reconstructive Surgery & Soft Tissue Regeneration

Explores innovative flap designs and tissue engineering for complex soft‑tissue defects following trauma or oncologic resection.

  • free flap microsurgery
  • vascularized composite allotransplantation
  • skin substitute biomaterials
  • scar modulation

Uses multidisciplinary teams to enhance functional and aesthetic outcomes.

Musculoskeletal Oncology

Addresses diagnosis and multidisciplinary treatment of primary bone and soft‑tissue sarcomas, emphasizing limb‑sparing approaches.

  • osteosarcoma
  • soft‑tissue sarcoma
  • neoadjuvant chemotherapy
  • precision radiotherapy

Coordinates with oncologists to evaluate novel targeted agents.

Sports Medicine & Tendon/Ligament Injuries

Studies injury mechanisms and biologic augmentation for athletic populations, aiming to reduce recovery time.

  • anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction
  • tendinopathy therapy
  • platelet‑rich plasma
  • rehabilitation protocols

Implements outcome measures to assess return‑to‑play.
