Josephine Luk, a PhD student with the Thompson Laboratory for Regenerative Orthopaedics, has been awarded an education scholarship to attend the prestigious 29th Annual Meeting of the European Orthopaedic Society from September 15-17 in Rome, Italy.
Luk, who will represent the Thompson Lab and the University of Missouri, will be a part of the annual meeting that brings together surgeons, biologists, engineers, and veterinarians in the field of orthopaedic and musculoskeletal research to share knowledge and explore the latest discoveries in orthopaedic science and surgery. The scholarship was awarded by the Orthoregeneration Network (ON) Foundation, which aims to link young professional experts across the world and promote innovation and development.
Luk’s area of research is on investigating immunogenic factors in the remaining bone marrow elements of osteochondral allografts and the degree of immune response in the host that may constrain bone incorporation between graft and host.
Congratulations, Josephine!
