Week 8: Brenda

Today marks the last day of the immersion program. On Monday I was at the clinic with Dr. Carli, a bit longer than usual. On Tuesday I gave a talk on the research performed this summer. On Wednesday I spent the whole day in the OR, saw both total knee and hip replacement surgeries. Thursday and Friday I was working in the lab on my pulsatile lavage data. However, the media I was using got infected so all of that data is not useable, but, I did get to use the pulsatile lavage and it was very fun. I learned a lot this summer about osteoarthritis and made new connections with clinicians, assistants, PAs, and the overall community at HSS. However, my time with Dr. Carli does not end here, I will be continuing a side project of my PhD thesis through the T32 NIH Predoctoral fellowship this upcoming academic year looking at hip samples of patients with OA.
