Research Interests

My goal is to be involved in research projects that will someday benefit people who have suffered bone/muscle/ligament damage. I've spent enough time recovering from the ways I injure myself not to wonder how I got hurt and how I can get better faster. Being able to understand and predict the results of injury will help us all understand how to treat it more effectively.
