At USC, we believe that world-class care is not only driven by clinical excellence, but also by a commitment to furthering our understanding of musculoskeletal disease. Our sports medicine surgeons work closely with a multidisciplinary research team to develop novel approaches for the treatment and prevention of common sports-related injuries. This work includes:
-The prospective study of the outcomes of shoulder, hip, elbow and knee surgery procedures
- Clinical trials to investigate cutting edge treatments for sports medicine injuries and osteoarthritis
- Biomechanical studies to model the effects of surgery on joint function
-Basic science studies focused investigating the basic cellular mechanisms of tissue healing and developing treatments for muscle and cartilage injury
