Major Academic Achievements

1. He pioneered a novel surgical strategy for individualized physiological reconstruction of the knee joint and put forward the new concept of integrated dynamic sagittal balance of the body to improve surgical outcomes.
2. He systematically established theories and techniques for precise, limited and quantitative placement of acetabular prostheses, optimizing surgical protocols for complex hip disorders.
3. He innovatively uncovered mechanisms for inhibiting degeneration and promoting repair of articular cartilage and meniscus, and screened candidate drugs for early intervention.

Research Outcomes He has long been engaged in the diagnosis, treatment and research of osteoarticular diseases, focusing on the repair and reconstruction of degenerative and injured joint tissues. His research mainly targets osteoarthritis. He has published more than 40 papers as first or corresponding author in authoritative journals including National Medical Journal of China, Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases, Advanced Science, Molecular Therapy, Advanced Functional Materials, Arthritis & Rheumatology, Osteoarthritis and Cartilage, Bone & Joint Research, Journal of Arthroplasty and Journal of Knee Surgery. He has presided over more than 10 research projects including the National Natural Science Foundation of China and holds 3 national patents as the first inventor.

He focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of osteoarthritis, osseous disorders of the hip, knee, shoulder, elbow and ankle, joint trauma and joint injuries. He specializes in primary and revision arthroplasty of the extremities, arthroscopic repair and reconstruction of joint tissues, and hip-preserving and knee-preserving surgery. In particular, he has conducted systematic and in-depth research on hip and knee arthroplasty and osteotomy, and achieved a series of innovative findings in surgical optimization of complex hip arthroplasty and individualized physiological reconstruction in knee arthroplasty.
