The Shoulder Research Group is an interdepartmental group consisting of collaborating academics from Imperial’s NHS Trust and London hospitals, the Mechanical Engineering Department and the Bioengineering Department who all share a strong and long-standing interest to advance the understanding of orthopaedic shoulder joints. Our mission is ultimately to improve the treatment of patients suffering from shoulder pain and dysfunction.
Our research interests cover all aspects of shoulder surgery, including shoulder joint replacements, instability, fracture and rotator cuff dysfunction. Our work integrates preclinical computational modelling, cadaveric laboratory testing, motion analyses, imaging and clinical studies including investigations of joint registry data.
