Josephine Luk, a PhD student in the Thompson Lab, received the inaugural Littlejohn Legacy Research Award for her work in osteochondral allograft (OCA) transplantation immunology and biomechanics.
Luk is investigating immunogenic factors in the remaining bone marrow elements of OCAs and the degree of immune response in the host that may constrain bone incorporation between graft and host.
The Littlejohn Legacy Award was established to honor the life and legacy of Dr. Robert Littlejohn and support orthopaedic learners in pursuit of advances that change healthcare for the better.
Congratulations, Josephine!
