Hello everyone! My name is Emily Sierakowski and I am a sophomore biology major with hopes of going to medical school and eventually becoming an orthopedic surgeon. I have been working in Dr. Young's Locomotion Lab for two years now. Both of these years I have been on the ACL project. In the future, I am hoping to find a less invasive way to repair ACLs and other ligaments. This lab is helping me fuel my passion more and more because you can see how poor surgical experiences can lead to difficulties in people's everyday lives.
I am very excited to continue data collection this year! We are broadening our study to the tri-campus community so we can compare males' and females' knee function. We look at people that have previously injured their knees or people that have perfectly healthy knees! I love working with the Locomotion Team and I cannot wait to see where this study takes us!
