Lecturer in Orthopaedic Biomechanics Tel No. 01865 273 008 Department Information Dr Mark Thompson, MEng (PhD Lond) CEng. I graduated MEng from Magdalen College Oxford and studied for a PhD in hip replacement design at QMW College London and the Robert Jones and Agnes Hunt Orthopaedic Hospital in Oswestry. A successful application for a Marie Curie Fellowship took me to work at the Orthopaedics Department at the University Hospital in Lund, Sweden. Most recently I led the mechanobiology group at the research labs of the Center for Musculoskeletal Surgery at the Charité Hospital, part of the Humboldt University in Berlin, Germany. My research aims to improve the diagnosis and treatment of musculoskeletal disorders through a deeper understanding of the mechanical environment and its interaction with biological pathways at a cell and tissue level.
