Women in Science Day 2025

Women in Science Day 2025

Every year on Februrary 11, the ARTORG Center joins in recognizing the important contributions women make in scientific fields and to raise awareness on the imbalance of genders in STEM subjects. On this International Day of Women and Girls in Science, we take a look at the work our female community members do and highlight their contribution to the research within ARTORG and beyond. We asked some the students in our study programs about their experience and what advice they would give to a girl interested in pursuing science.

PhD Defense: Mathieu Simon Investigates Methods for Accurate Bone Fracture Prediction

On January 20, 2025, Mathieu Simon successfully defended his PhD thesis titled: “Multi-Scale Bone Morphology – Mechanical Property Relations in Ageing and Disease.” In this thesis, Mathieu investigated methods of bone analysis which could replace the current gold standard, dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA). His dissertation proposes that high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT) represents a good surrogate for in vivo bone mechanical properties estimation and, based on HR-pQCT scans, homogenized finite element (hFE) analysis provides accurate estimation of distal tibia sections as compared to mechanical experiment.

PhD Defense: Osman Berk Satir Brings Deep Learning into Shoulder Arthroplasty

On January 7, 2025, Osman Berk Satir successfully defended his PhD thesis titled: “Deep learning for automatic characterization of shoulder bone and muscle morphology and degeneration from CT images.” In this work, Osman presented a series of novel deep learning-based methods designed to enhance the automatic quantification of bone and muscle morphology in the shoulder, offering significant advancements for the success of total shoulder arthroplasty. In his dissertation, he demonstrated the feasibility and benefits of integrating deep learning-based techniques to accurately and efficiently measure anatomical parameters, assess muscle degeneration, reconstruct the premorbid anatomy, and quantify the trabecular structure. Congratulations to Dr. Osman Berk Satir on this incredible achievement and for contributing to the advancement of AI’s role within healthcare!

Future Day 2024

At this year's Future Day, the ARTORG Center opened its doors to inquisitive children aged 11 to 13 who wanted to gain an insight into the fascinating world of science and research. The Musculoskeletal Biomechanics Lab welcomed five 7th-grade girls who had the opportunity to explore biomechanical research on bones. After an introductory overview of the subject, they delved into the structure of bones and participated in hands-on mechanical testing. The rehabilitation center also welcomed a group of children to explore the use of modern technology and games within rehabilitation. After discovering and trying some playful therapeutic exercises, they had the opportunity to build their own rehabilitation game from electrical components.
