NOVAJoint PROJECT
Project Overview
As a researcher at the Columbia Engineering Musculoskeletal Biomechanics Lab, I’m working on the NOVAjoint porject: developing a regenerative knee implant to restore full joint function to patients severely impacted by osteoarthritis (OA).
My contributions:
Mechanical testing of the 3D-printed scaffolds (preparation, hardware setup, performance, data collection, analysis)
Computational modeling of the tibial insert and femur using 3D Slicer, Blender, Meshmixer, and Solidworks
Create instructions and slide decks to optimize research processes
Run Finite Element Analysis using proprietary software (FEBio)
