A lab that takes on diseases of the joints and musculoskeletal system with new treatment technologies and materials.
AboutAbout the lab
Supporting sports and the movement of the body through medicine
The Sports Medicine and Science Lab researches the development of new treatment technologies and materials for diseases of the musculoskeletal system, such as the joints.
The lab works on motion analysis to improve athletes' performance, the development of functional reconstruction methods for osteoarthritis, and joint tissue regeneration.
It also conducts research on elucidating and controlling the mechanisms by which the body's soft tissues are rebuilt, and on medical applications of synthetic polymer gels.
Prof. Kondo serves as the director of the Sports Medicine Clinical Center at Hokkaido University Hospital.
