Research:
Interdisciplinary Work to Repair, Replace, Rejuvenate, and Regenerate

Our Divisions

Despite enormous advances, surgery – cutting through and, at times, removing bone and soft tissue – still involves very real patient risk.
To reduce the risk surgeons rely on research to advance the effectiveness of diagnostic, decision-support, surgical, and post-surgical tools and devices.

It is a type of research for which our department is ideally suited. For example, here, vascular surgeons work with mechanical engineers to better understand blood flow. General surgeons work with bioengineers and experts in nanotechnology to create biomaterials that will emit therapies to encourage cell growth and survival.

Labs and Other Programs

Research goes on in all our divisions. Research resources can be found on division sites, the Community Academic Profiles site, and in the Helpful Links page.

The following is a list of laboratories and other programs in the department with web sites.
