Congratulations Dr. Luke Mattar for winning the
@ORSsociety New Investigator Recognition Award (NIRA) 2024. Proud of your dedication and brilliance!🎉 Here's to many more achievements ahead! #ORS2024

[Richard E Debski @DebskiRichard]

Luke had a packed house for his PhD dissertation defense and did a wonderful job! Congratulations Dr Mattar! We look forward to many more great things from you! @PittBioE @Pitt_ORL

[Orthopaedic Robotics Lab @Pitt_ORL]

The ORL had a great time at ORS2023 (@ORSsociety) and enjoyed all the wonderful science!! Ben, Keishi and Luke did a great job presenting our research and it was amazing getting to see alumni and friends together for a fantastic lab dinner!

[Orthopaedic Robotics Lab @Pitt_ORL]

Congratulations Dr. Debski (@DebskiRichard)!! The ORL couldn't ask for a better role model and mentor. Thank you for everything you do for the community, the field of orthopaedics and everyone in the lab!

[Orthopaedic Research Society @ORSsociety]

Last month at #ORS2023, the society welcomed this year's Fellows - longstanding members who serve as role models in the community & in the field of #orthoresearch and exemplify the core values of the Society.

Congratulations to the 2023 ORS Fellows!

Congratulations, Rachel! Runner up in Undergraduate Student Paper Competition: Solid Mechanics at #SB3C2022 . Representing the ORL well last night at the banquet!

[Richard E Debski @DebskiRichard]

The Orthopaedic Robotics Laboratory had a great first day at #SB3C2022. Luke and Rachel gave wonderful presentations! Looking forward to more great science and community.

[Orthopaedic Robotics Lab @Pitt_ORL]

The ORL is so glad to be back at the ORS in person! Enjoying beautiful Tampa Bay, great science and great company! #ORS2022

[Richard E Debski @DebskiRichard]

The Orthopaedic Robotics Laboratory is looking for a research engineer to help run our unique robotic testing system and manage the lab. Interested candidates can get more information in the Talent Center on the University of Pittsburgh website.

[Orthopaedic Robotics Lab @Pitt_ORL]

Thank you Dr. Fu for everything you've done for the Orthopaedic and Bioengineering fields. Our lab wouldn't be where it is to this day without your teaching and support. You will be greatly missed.

A BioE (@Pitt_ORL) and orthopaedic surgery team received an @NIH award to develop a personalized approach for capsule surgery following shoulder dislocation. They hope their work can help athletes make a healthy return to the sport that they love.
