Research Interests

I would like to be involved in research projects that will some day 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 can get better faster. Being able to predict the results of injury will help us all understand the implications of how to treat it more effectively.
