For this exciting episode of Research Park Chronicles, we’re steering away from the park’s older history, and into its more recent! Over the past few years the Research Park has been a pioneering center for a wide array of work, to include work with the University of Tennessee Medical Center. Now, with the innovations that are going on with orthopedic research and care, the park is at the forefront of another fascinating world of research.

Rickey has a wide ranging conversation with members involved in the newly founded Advance Orthopedic Institute on the research that they are conducting at the park. Rickey guides us through the UT Medical Centers role in teaching new residents, their dedication to the local community. We also get insight into the incredible collaborations and partnership in orthopedics, and the leaps they’re taking toward the future of orthopedic practices at the Institute as it nears its opening date!
