Dr. Geoffrey Ng specializes in musculoskeletal biomechanics, orthopaedics, joint preservation, and implant design – aspiring to outline a path for injury prevention and healthy aging – and examines the effects of musculoskeletal structure and function on joint loading mechanics. His multidisciplinary research program combines novel in vivo (imaging, gait, functional metrics) and in silico research methods (musculoskeletal and finite element simulations) with in vitro testing platforms (physical joint loading and injury simulations) to characterize optimal joint loading mechanics and improve diagnosis, treatment, and injury prevention strategies. Graduating as Valedictorian, Dr. Ng received his PhD from the University of Ottawa (Mechanical Engineering) working with the Human Movement Biomechanics Laboratory and Division of Orthopaedic Surgery. He then completed his postdoctoral research program at Imperial College London (London, UK); and is currently an Honorary Lecturer in Surgery and Cancer. He recently received the Carroll A. Laurin Award for Clinical Research Excellence (Canadian Orthopaedic Foundation), the Basic Science Research Award (Arthroscopy, 2021), Implants Section Best Podium Presentation Award (Orthopaedic Research Society, 2021), the coveted New Investigator Recognition Award (Orthopaedic Research Society, 2019), and was co-recipient of the prestigious Kappa Delta Elizabeth Winston Lanier Award (American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 2018).
