AboutAbout the lab
Toward a society where people can move their bodies in good health for life
Orthopedic surgery treats diseases and injuries of the entire musculoskeletal system, from birth to the end of life.
Knee pain, shoulder pain, and low back pain are experienced by many people, and fractures of the femur and spine are a major cause of older adults becoming bedridden.
Overcoming impairments of motor function not only improves patients' quality of life but also enables social participation and reduces the burden of care. The lab aims to realize a society where people can move their bodies in good health throughout their lives.
The department includes two endowed units: Musculoskeletal Function Reconstruction and Advanced Medicine for Rheumatic Diseases.
