Welcome to the Albro Lab
The Albro Lab is a multidisciplinary orthopaedics research group that studies degenerative disorders of the synovial joint. Our work incorporates disciplines of biomechanics, mechanobiology, tissue engineering, and photonics in order to understand the pathophysiology of tissue degeneration, develop novel diagnostic modalities, and advance novel treatments into the clinic.
