• Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) • Tendon Repair and Reconstruction • Tissue Engineering • Spine Related Research

• Diagram A shows the subsynovial connective tissue (SSCT) in human carpal tunnel. Diagram B illustrates surface engineering modification of tendon for tendon repair and reconstruction.

• We have recently received NIH funding to study CTS, Tendon Repair, and Tendon Reconstruction.

Kristin Zhao, Ph.D. Assistive and Restorative Technology Laboratory biomechanics, assistive technology, imaging methods, rehabilitation interventions

Dr. Zhao's team uses innovative technologies, including biomechanics and imaging, to enable earlier diagnoses, effective intervention and outcome assessment, and the development of novel assistive devices for individuals with injuries and disabilities. Some current projects include:

• Assessment of wrist joint and thumb joint instability using dynamic CT imaging (Figure 1)

• Computer modeling and exercise interventions for

individuals with spinal cord injury to reduce shoulder pain (Figure 2)

• Development of a novel myoelectric prosthesis (Figure 3)

Funding has included NIH, Paralyzed Veterans of America, and the Mayo Center for Individualized Medicine.
