Congratulations to our very own Kaitlyn Cimney for her fantastic presentation at the Engineering in Healthcare: Industry and Research Symposium back in January. Her presentation was on Cerclage Wire as an Affordable Plate Fixation Alternative in Murine Femoral Critical Sized Defect Models, which is part of her ongoing research. Kaitlyn’s work and presentation won second place in the symposium!
We would also like to shout out our undergraduate students that shared their research during the symposium. Megan Bennett, Anna Le, and CJ Replogle all shared their work with research posters. Anna and CJ shared their posters on Lead-Based Nanoparticle Contrast Agent for Post-mortem Vascular MicroCT Imaging and Effects of Estradiol (17-alpha) on Osteoarthritis and Bone Development in Genetically Heterogeneous Het3 Male Mice.

Megan’s Poster (shown above) detailed her work on Patient Demographics and Standard of Care Diagnostics as Risk Factors for Bone Reconstruction Failure in Masquelet’s Induced Membrane Technique: A Retrospective Chart Review.
We are incredibly proud of all of our lab members and their hard work and achievements.
