TLRO graduate students Jessee Kruse (at left in photo) and Kamryn Chastain (at right in photo) successfully defended their Master’s thesis and look ahead to graduation. Guided by their primary advisor, Dr. Aaron Stoker, Kruse studied “Regional Mapping of the Osteoarthritic Joint” and Chastain studied “Metabolic Responses of Meniscal Tissue to Collagenase Stimulation.” After graduation, Kruse plans to attend medical school at Mizzou and Chastain will attend veterinary medical school at Oklahoma State University. Congratulations, Jessee and Kamryn!
