Video: The Future of Osteoarthritis
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the one of the most common causes of debility and loss of function in the United States. Presented by Prakash Jayabalan, MD, PhD & Mitra Lavasani, PhD, the goal of this research team is to optimize the non-operative treatment of individuals with knee osteoarthritis to avoid or delay the need for total joint replacement.
