Vanderbilt
Sports Medicine leads the orthopedic community in cutting edge research
both locally and nationally. Our physicians have been published
in medical journals and have presented at both state and national
level conferences. It is our mission to improve the lives
of others through science, education and clinical skill. To be the
best, we continously are working on creating better surgical techniques,
and rehabilitation through our research.
Kurt
Spindler: His active basic science research focuses on the
difference between extraarticular (MCL) and intraarticular (ACL)
ligament healing and the role of tissue engineering and growth factors
to modulate repair. His practice and clinical research includes
prospective long-term follow-up of anterior cruciate ligament reconstructions,
and he initiated the Multicenter Orthopaedic Outcomes Network (MOON)
in 2001.

John
Kuhn: His research interests are in biomechanical investigations
into the pathology of the athlete's shoulder, and in outcomes after
treatment of shoulder disorders.
Warren
Dunn: As the 2001 recipient
of the AAOS/OREF
Health Services Research Fellowship Grant , Dr. Dunn obtained
an MPH from Columbia focusing on clinical epidemiology and outcomes
research. He has received numerous research awards including the
Richard
O'Connor award from the Arthroscopy Association of North America
(AANA) and the O'Donoghue
Sports Injury Research Award from the American Orthopaedic
Society for Sports Medicine (AOSSM) for anterior cruciate ligament
(ACL) research.
