Research in the Reeves lab includes collaboration with physical therapists, orthopedic surgeons, and area clinicians to investigate pathological issues from an anatomical and biomechanical perspective. Recent research involves ultrasound diagnosis of ankle injuries and surface mapping of the dorsal scapular nerve for use in pain management. Other areas of research include K-12 science outreach programs for teachers and students interested in the biomedical sciences.
Other activities include the training of health care professionals utilizing cadavers from the Center’s Willed Body Program. Training activities occur in the Bioskills and Simulation Training facility. In addition, this facility supports research collaborations with orthopedic surgeons in the DFW area.
