Hani Haider PhD

Hani Haider, Ph.D., is the director of the department's Orthopaedics Biomechanics and Advanced Surgical Technologies Laboratory. There, researchers and engineers are performing cutting-edge experimental simulation and testing of the next generation of orthopaedic implants, and contributing to the development of multi-axial implant simulators. Through this research we are working to create implants that last longer and perform better, which are designed to suit the modern patient who is younger and more active. This innovative work on wear testing of joints is also helping to set national and international standards for testing of knee replacement systems.
