Shoulder and Elbow Research

Introduction

Dr. James Gregory’s lab is focused on clinical and translational research that improves the quality of care for patients with common shoulder and elbow conditions. His research focuses on the utilization of emerging technology and surgical techniques to come up innovative approaches to address common research questions. Emphasis is placed on collaboration with other departments or divisions when possible.
