Recent Advances in Orthopedics 3 is intended as an update for orthopedic surgeons and musculoskeletal research scientists. It is a detailed overview of the newest information in musculoskeletal science with a focus on clinical relevance.
Dr Irving Shapiro and colleagues provide the reader with the most pertinent and recent developments written by thought leaders in basic science research. Wide coverage of an array of hot topics including biofilm related infections, the adaptation of bone to loading forces, biomarkers, degenerative lumbar disc disease, the genetic basis of hip disease, fibrosis of post-traumatic joints and the microenvironment of tendon injury are expertly covered. Importantly, Dr Shapiro has brought together clinician-scientists and basic science researchers to provide the reader with a practical perspective of these topics.
It is our sincerest hope that Recent Advances in Orthopedics 3 will serve as a compendium of the newest in orthopedic basic science knowledge. We hope that you will find this as a unique, practical resource for the latest information whether you are caring for patients or engaging in basic science research that will influence the care of patients in the future.
