The Division of Pediatric Orthopaedic Surgery celebrated the successful recruitment of our division director and professor of pediatric orthopaedic surgery, James McCarthy, MD, from the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Rehabilitation in Madison. McCarthy was awarded the Alvin H. Crawford Chair in Pediatric Orthopaedics and has made significant progress toward development of the Cerebral Palsy Center, in collaboration with Jilda Vargus-Adams, MD, and the Division of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation. Our much anticipated, state-of-the-art motion analysis laboratory will significantly improve the impact we can make in the study of and treatment for those struggling with the challenges of cerebral palsy and other conditions that can affect musculoskeletal function.
Orthopaedics was also strengthened by the addition of Peter Sturm, MD, who joined us from the Shriners Hospital for Children in Chicago, to direct the Alvin H. Crawford Spine Center at Cincinnati Children’s. Sturm, professor of pediatric orthopaedic surgery, was awarded the Alvin H. Crawford Chair of Spine Surgery and along with codirector Alvin Crawford, MD, is developing a global center of basic science and clinical investigation directed at improving outcomes for those impacted by a wide variety of conditions affecting the spine.
