His translational work bridges biomechanics, biomaterials, and regenerative medicine. Publications demonstrate expertise in implant fixation, bone-implant interface, and cellular responses to mechanical stimuli. Over 25 years, his lab has developed preclinical models for osteoporotic bone healing, particle-induced inflammation, and ultrasound-enhanced bone formation.
Recent studies highlight novel investigations into gut microbiota's role in implant loosening and seasonal birth effects on bone properties. The lab employs advanced methodologies including micro-computed tomography, gene expression profiling, and biomechanical testing. Current affiliations include the Department of Anatomy & Cell Biology and Rush's Research Enterprise.
