About

Research

Morphological Evaluation of Bone, Cartilage, and Connective Tissues

The laboratory has the expertise to evaluate various components of the musculoskeletal system either at the adult or embryonic stage of development, and to relate morphological adaptations to normal functional aspects of the involved tissues. The techniques presently available for such studies include, transmission and scanning electron microscopy, processing of calcified tissues, morphometric measurements at the tissue and cellular level of interest, immunocytochemistry, histochemistry, and various light microscopy related techniques. A major interest is to collect morphometric measurements at the cell or tissue level, so that quantitative evaluation of morphological changes can be determined on a statistical basis.

Industry Relationships

Industry Relationships

One of the goals of HSS is to advance the science of orthopedic surgery, rheumatology, and related disciplines for the benefit of patients. Research staff at HSS may collaborate with outside companies for education, research and medical advances. HSS supports this collaboration in order to foster medical breakthroughs; however, HSS also believes that these collaborations must be disclosed.

As part of the disclosure process, this website lists Research staff collaborations with outside companies if the Research staff member received any payment during the prior year or expects to receive any payment in the next year. The disclosures are based on information provided by the Research staff and other sources and are updated regularly. Current ownership interests and leadership positions are also listed. Further information may be available on individual company websites.

As of May 31, 2023, Dr. Doty reported no relationships with healthcare industry.

By disclosing the collaborations of HSS Research staff with industry on this website, HSS and its Research staff make this information available to patients and the public, thus creating a transparent environment for those who are interested in this information. Further, the HSS Conflicts of Interest Policy does not permit payment of royalties on products developed by him/her that are used on patients at HSS.
