Research interests
My research interests include orthopaedic sports medicine, hip preservation, trauma, and outcomes research. I am particularly interested in identifying clinical, imaging, and patient-level factors that influence recovery, return to activity, complications, and long-term outcomes following orthopedic injury and surgery. I am also interested in large-database and retrospective clinical studies, musculoskeletal imaging, health disparities, and projects that translate clinically meaningful findings into improved patient care.
