The Science of Healing in Women’s Sports — A Conversation with Dr. Jenny Robinson
Office Hours with Liz Wayne
Dr. Liz Wayne taps in on her wide network of friends and contacts to discuss some of the most important, and often controversial, topics surrounding biomedical engineering, and related areas shaping healthcare. Wayne, an Assistant Professor at the University of Washington and host of our monthly webinar, unpacks today’s most pressing scientific topics and explores how biomedical engineers are building a healthier, more equitable world, one discovery at a time.
In our first episode, Wayne speaks with Dr. Jenny Robinson, an associate professor at the University of Washington, about sports injuries and the future of tissue regeneration. Robinson shares insights into how sex hormones influence healing, with a focus on female athletes and the high rate of ACL injuries among women. Among other topics, she also talks about the limitations of current treatments like autografts and allografts and explores how biomaterials could revolutionize recovery. Don’t miss our first scintillating episode.
