Background
Dr. Li is an Assistant Professor of Orthopaedic Surgery
(Bioengineering) at the Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical
School. He has a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from The Johns Hopkins
University in 1992. He completed a two and half year post-doctoral
fellowship at The Johns Hopkins Medical School in orthopaedic
biomechanics, and worked at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center as
a Research Assistant Professor in orthopaedic biomechanics. At the Beth
Israel Deaconess Medical Center Orthopedic Biomechanics Laboratory, he is
responsible for initiation of a joint kinematics laboratory that combines
both robotic technology and computer simulation. The objectives of the
laboratory are to evaluate functions of normal and abnormal diarthrodial
joints as well as joints after reconstruction and to improve the joint
reconstruction technique and to optimize the prosthetic design. The
laboratory focuses on research oriented in sports medicine, total joint
replacement and trauma. |
