Our 2026 Vail Hip Summit arthroscopy and PAO labs were a great success!

We had a great first and second day at the Vail Hip Summit, welcoming the greatest minds in hip preservation. Special thanks to our co-host @HSpecialSurgery

We are thrilled to welcome faculty and attendees to the 19th Annual Vail Hip Summit in Vail, Colorado. Hosted by SPRI and Hospital for Special Surgery @HSpecialSurgery

At SPRI, our research spans regenerative medicine, biomechanics and outcomes to better understand how skeletal muscle influences recovery, performance and long-term mobility. #OrthopaedicResearch #MuscleHealth #RegenerativeMedicine #SPRI

Through SPRI’s EPOC program, students are introduced to orthopaedic research and biomedical science through our fifth grade tours!

Thank you to Dr. Randall W. Viola for delivering Grand Rounds on Hand 101 for Sports Medicine Surgeons!

Thanks to @KDVR for hosting Dr. Marc J. Philippon and Dr. Thomas R. Hackett to discuss sports medicine and injury prevention ahead of the Winter Olympics. Watch the full segment: sprivail.org/publications/i… #SportsMedicine #OlympicMedicine

Celebrating more than 50 years of Olympic service in sports medicine! Physicians closely aligned with SPRI will again serve as team doctors for U.S. Ski & Snowboard at the 2026 Winter Olympics, continuing a legacy begun by Dr. J. Richard Steadman. sprivail.org/publications/i…

New SPRI research led by Dr. Xueqin Gao and published in Pharmacological Research shows that targeting cellular senescence can improve musculoskeletal health and extend lifespan in a preclinical model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy. #MuscularDystrophy #NIHResearch

New advancements in SPRI’s Robotics Laboratory are expanding biomechanical research capabilities. With upgraded materials testing technology, researchers can more closely replicate real-world loading environments to support clinically meaningful orthopaedic studies.

From all of us at SPRI, we wish you a safe and happy holiday season.  #SPRIResearch #HappyHolidays #ResearchCommunity
