The NIH grant was awarded to sports medicine physician and professor Adam Yanke, MD, PhD, and professor Nozomu Inoue, MD, PhD, according to a May 25 news release.

Dr. Yanke and Dr. Inoue are co-principal investigators and will study the properties of donor knee cartilage to identify how to best match it with cartilage transplant patients. They will also evaluate the effectiveness of using less expensive and cumbersome imaging to study donor cartilage.

At the Becker's 23rd Annual Spine, Orthopedic and Pain Management-Driven ASC + The Future of Spine Conference, taking place June 11-13 in Chicago, spine surgeons, orthopedic leaders and ASC executives will come together to explore minimally invasive techniques, ASC growth strategies and innovations shaping the future of outpatient spine care.
