Why is Sports Medicine Research Important?
Sports medicine is a dynamic field that continues to evolve through clinical research and evidence-based practice. Through ongoing research, we’ve enhanced our understanding of human performance and recovery, leading to more effective treatments that benefit both athletes and active individuals.
Dr. Burnham’s research contributions span several key areas in orthopedic sports medicine, with particular focus on knee and joint preservation procedures. His published works include significant contributions to surgical techniques, clinical outcomes, and ethical considerations in sports medicine, appearing in respected medical textbooks such as Master Techniques in Orthopaedic Surgery and various specialized sports medicine publications. Areas of research interest include:
- Clinical outcomes in sports medicine
- Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) reconstruction and repair
- Joint preservation and cartilage restoration
- Return-to-lay protocols and ethics
- Biologics and regenerative medicine
