Dr Danè Turner’s research interest is focused on the use of imaging technologies to study joint biomechanics. Working closely with clinical partners Dr Turner and her team have developed custom methodologies to create musculoskeletal computer models and techniques to assess surgical outcomes. Her team uses a combination of finite element modelling, musculoskeletal modelling, clinical research methods, gait analysis, fluoroscopic analysis, mechanical testing methods and image analysis techniques to answer questions related to joint arthroplasty and surgical reconstruction and improvements in orthopaedic implant design.
Dr Turner is the current Treasurer of the Australia New Zealand Orthopaedic Research Society, ANZORS, (https://www.anzors.org.au/) and Associate Editor of the Medical & Biological Engineering & Computing journal.
