Biography

Dr. Philip Noble is an Adjunct Professor at McGovern Medical School at UTHealth Houston and serves as a Scientific Consultant to the Center for Orthopaedic Research, Innovation and Training (CORIT) in the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery.  The Center specializes in the introduction, evaluation and development of new technologies in Orthopedics. Current CORIT research programs include: (1) Development new mitigation strategies for prevention of prosthetic joint infections, (2) The prevention and treatment of periprosthetic fractures, (3) Quantifying and enhancing surgical skills through computer-assisted and robotic technologies, and (4) Biomechanical simulation and optimization of orthopaedic procedures.

Dr Noble has over 40 years’ experience in orthopedic research and received his education at several Australian universities, including the University of Melbourne, Latrobe University, and the University of Western Australia, in addition to the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow, Scotland, where he received his PhD under the mentorship of Professor John Paul.

Dr. Noble’s diverse research interests include the biomechanics of human and artificial joints, the morphometry of human bones, computer-assisted orthopedics and robotic surgery, orthopedic biomaterials, and the quantitative assessment of clinical outcomes. He is a frequent speaker at national and international conferences. He has also published extensively in Orthopedics and related fields and serves as a reviewer of manuscripts for many journals including Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research and the Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery.

Dr Noble has received several awards including the Winston Churchill Traveling Fellowship, the Frank Stinchfield and Otto AuFranc Awards of the Hip Society, the John Insall Award of the Knee Society and, most recently, the Lifetime Achievement Award of International Society of Hip Arthroscopy. He is a Member of several professional societies, including The Hip Society, The Knee Society, The International Hip Society, and The American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons. He also serves on the Board of Directors of the International Society of Technology in Arthroplasty and is the Deputy Editor for Research of the Journal of Hip Preservation Surgery. Dr. Noble is also an experienced inventor who holds numerous patents and has contributed to the design of several popular designs of hip and knee replacements that have been implanted in millions of patients worldwide.
