1. Prof. Dr. Matthias Woiczinski leads the Experimental Orthopedics research area at Waldkliniken in Eisenberg, focusing on the forces acting on hip implants and the impact of various knee prostheses on gait. 2. The research team uses a broad spectrum of methods including kinematics, in-vitro studies, and simulations to improve orthopedic care. 3. The team also investigates the long-term effects of plastic abrasion from implants on surrounding bones and collaborates with various medical departments and medical technology companies.
