Thanks for highlighting our work! @Grinstaff @BergholtLab
🚨 April #OAC #EditorsChoice #BasicScience 🚨
This work by Kazemi et al. demonstrates how Raman arthroscopy is a transformative tool to evaluate, monitor, and treat cartilage injuries. @Albrolab @Grinstaff

Check out this article from @AlbroLab @BuMechE on how physiologic TGF-β doses promote hyaline-like cartilage with balanced #ECM production, reducing detrimental effects compared to supraphysiologic doses.

Had a wonderful time visiting @VCU_BME! Thanks for having me!
Had a great time hosting @AlbroLab today for @VCU_BME seminar and hearing about all the great work they are up to @BUCollegeofENG!!!
+ Bonus... @BergholtLab was there in spirit!!
Thank you to The Brink and Patrick Kennedy, especially, for featuring our work on Raman spectroscopy for osteoarthritis diagnostics! @BergholtLab @Grinstaff @BUCollegeofENG @BUmechanobio @BuMechE
#DYK: 24% of adults suffer from #osteoarthritis, and the burden can be even heavier on younger patients. A team of @BU_Tweets researchers led by @BUCollegeofENG's @AlbroLab are developing a noninvasive light-based arthroscope to assess cartilage health. ➡️ spr.ly/6001PWbpB

That's a wrap! Thanks to our keynotes @creinhartking & @GareginPapoian and our faculty speakers Dr. Ebong, @AlbroLab, @jboerckel & @PDP_Lab! Also to our Trainees, we couldn't have done it without you! #CMTMSymposium2022
Had a great time! Wonderful to see the Center continuing to grow.

So pleased to announce our @NIH_NIAMS
R01 on developing Raman arthroscopy for osteoarthritis diagnostics. Excited to collaborate with @CCRB27 @BergholtLab, @BUCollegeofENG @Grinstaff, @BIDMChealth Brian Snyder, @NewBoltonCenter Thomas Schaer, and @CCLRI Xiaojuan Li.

Congratulations to @AlbroLab from #BostonUniversity and our very own @BergholtLab for securing an exciting @NIH funded project on assessment of cartilage health with Raman techniques. In this project @BergholtLab will be developing clinical arthroscopic instrumentation.
So pleased to announce our @NIH_NIAMS R01, on latent TGF-beta scaffolds for patient-specific cartilage regeneration. Excited to collaborate with @BUCollegeofENG @Grinstaff, @UABNews @tspcrt, @MassGeneralNews Mark Randolph & Fernando Guastaldi, and @BIDMChealth Brian Snyder.
The orthopaedic research team run by @AlbroLab, @Grinstaff, and Dr. Brian Snyder is excited to announce NIH-funded postdoctoral positions on 1) Raman diagnostics of OA and 2) growth factor delivery platforms for cartilage tissue engineering. albrolab.com/open-positions
Congratulations to this year's Albro Lab graduating seniors, Andy Zhang and Gabriela Alba. Andy will be pursuing a PhD at Princeton and Gabriela will be performing clinical research at Boston Children's Hospital.
