Research

Our goal is to provide patients and clinicians with improved methods of diagnosis and treatment to restore function to the injured and diseased knee.We aim to be recognised nationally and internationally as a centre of excellence in the treatment and prevention of knee disorders, through innovative and quality programs in areas of research, education, professional training and community service. Our research is focused on key areas related to the treatment and prevention of knee disorders. These areas progress from prevention of knee injuries to total joint replacement. For many people, injuries lead to the onset and progression of osteoarthritis years later. Often these injuries lead to such degeneration that in the long-term a replacement with a prosthetic is necessary. To intervene effectively and restore optimal function of affected knees, it is critical to generate new methods of diagnosis and understand the long-term effects of acute injuries. Advancing knowledge and techniques to diagnose injury and monitor a person's recovery provides a foundation for improving approaches to restoration of the biological knee joint.
