Cleveland Clinic's Musculoskeletal Research Center (MSRC) brings together researchers across the spectrum of biomedical discovery—translational scientists and engineers, orthopaedic surgeons, radiologists and imaging scientists, rheumatologists, physiatrists, pathologists, neuroscientists, and biostatisticians—to discover, translate and innovate to improve patient care.
More About UsMultidisciplinary investigators in Cleveland Clinic’s Musculoskeletal Research Center study various topics including orthopaedics, rheumatology, spine, physiatry, imaging, pathology, neurosciences and biostatistics.
Learn MoreDr. Marasco was honored for engineering a prosthetic that allows the wearer to “think” and function like an able-bodied person.
In this three-year clinical study, Drs. Alberts and Baker will utilize virtual reality technology to isolate the causes of freezing of gait, a debilitating symptom of Parkinson’s disease, thanks to support from the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research.
Dr. Marasco and his collaborators designed a novel system that combines intuitive motor control, touch and grip kinesthesia for patients with upper-limb amputations.
