the lab focusing on the impact of these injuries on the growth and development
of muscles, with investigation of medications to preserve muscle tissue and
prevent contractures.
- Clinical research with
focus on surgical outcomes, quality of life measures, compensatory patterns, diaphragm paralysis, and Thoracic Outlet Syndrome.
