Lukas's new paper in AJSM identifies what ligament structures provide stability in different knee positions. The findings will help surgeons to prioritise what structures to repair after knee injury

Background: Injuries to the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), Kaplan fibers (KFs), anterolateral capsule/ligament (C/ALL), and lateral meniscus posterior root (...

Our newest startup company #OSSTEC has just completed its seed round and now has the runway to get its first product towards regulatory approval. It's a super-strong team led by @MaxwellMunford. https://t.co/3G0GUQ7Vut

Tom's new paper in @SciReports shows how machine learning can create knee implant designs - automatically - from a set of patient's CT scans. This method is already being used by our spinout company @oss_tec ! 😀😀

It looks like an in vivo result - but it's not. Nupur and Kostas's new paper shows that bioreactors enable bone remodelling around implants to be tested in the lab. Ideal for optimising novel implant fixation technologies with lower animal burden & cost. https://t.co/MccK1HAmHg

Been a great week with the @aclsg, great program and superb discussion. A rapid pace of advancement in the world of knee sport surgery. The conference venue was more than lovely too. Looking forward to Japan 2024

Earlier this week JJ led a team of 8 @ImperialMechEng students to girls school outreach. A great day of engineering and fun for 100 year 8 (12-13 yrold) girls! #WomenInSTEM @imperialcollege
Jonathan Jeffers, Professor of Mechanical Engineering at Imperial College, and some excellent students, inspired our girls this week with a model of a Mars Rover, a Formula 1 car and a kite generator. L4 (Year 8) had a fun-filled day of science. Thank you @imperialcollege

Congratulations to @r_oosterbeek who is going to be leaving us in Sepember 😢 to take up a lecturer position at @UniofOxford 🤩. It's a mega-achievement and a big step in an academic career!

The risk of tibial eminence avulsion fracture associated with Bi-UKA is similar to UKA-M, suggesting that any perceived risk of avulsion should not weigh heavily in decision-making for knee arthroplasty procedures. #Fracture #Knee

Jennifer's new paper in @BoneJointRes shows that Bi-UKA has similar tibial eminence fracture risk to medial UKA. The risk is much lower than that of bi-cruciate retaining TKA. To minimise risk, protect anterior medial bone and avoid overstuffing. https://t.co/fiIaDLZGYq
