With support from the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, the Thompson family, the Gaines Endowment, and the Mizzou BioJoint Center, the latest technology for translational biomechanical testing has been installed in the TLRO’s Carson Biomechanics & Bioengineering Lab.
The SimVitro BioRobotics Testing System is an innovative tool that can perform a wide-range of biomechanical testing protocols that directly correspond to ‘real life’ movements, activities, and loads, including work, sport, and rehabilitation. This novel system further adds to our unique capabilities as a translational orthopaedic laboratory performing comprehensive musculoskeletal research in an orthopaedic hospital dedicated to ‘Discovering Better’ for our patients.
