Residents Research Day
Darius Viskontas, a resident in Orthopaedic Surgery working under the co-supervision of Jim Johnson, faculty member in the Departments of Mechanical & Materials Engineering and Surgery, was awarded best research paper September 23 at the annual Residents Research Day of the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery at the London Convention Centre.
 
Viskontas' paper focused on computer-assisted knee alignment using an implant load sensing system, originally pioneered and designed by fourth-year design students in MME (2000).  This topic was also the subject of two graduate theses (Sadie Roth, 2002, and Tom Skrinskas, 2004).
