James Iatridis Elected as 2nd Vice President of ORS
Dr. Iatridis was elected as the 2nd Vice President of the Orthopaedic Research Society. His 4 year term in the presidential lineage on the ORS Board of Directors will begin after the ORS annual meeting in San Diego in March 2017. During his 20 years as a member of the ORS, Dr. Iatridis has served as a program topic chair, regularly organized workshops and judged award competitions, and reviewed abstracts. He has also been the Chair of the ORS/OREF/AAOS New Investigator Research Funding Workshop and the inaugural Chair of the ORS Spine Section. Dr. Iatridis has a strong vision to balancing the growth opportunities offered by the new ORS Sections with focus and efficiency, while also nurturing the broad orthopaedic mission and the cohesive orthopaedic research community. He is committed to building innovative partnerships with diverse involvement across disciplines and geographies.

On November 4, 2016, the Iatridis Lab attended the 2016 Philadelphia Spine Research Symposium (PSRS) held at Drexel University in Philadelphia. The meeting aimed to “cover all areas of spine research spanning from basic to clinical, and encompass the broad areas of development, pathophysiology, aging, pain, therapeutics and diagnostics.”
Dr. James Iatridis served as one of the organizers of the upcoming symposium while 4 podium presentations and 1 poster was presented from Mount Sinai. Rose Long present her podium presentation entitled, “TGF-β1 Induces a Contractile CD146+ Phenotype of Human Annulus Fibrosus Cells with Affinity to Collagen Scaffold for Annulus Fibrosus Repair and won 3rd prize in podium presentations while Olivia Torre presented her podium presentation entitled, “Development of an In Vivo Model of Neonatal Intervertebral Disc Injury and Regeneration” and won first prize in podium presentations. In addition, Tom Evashwick-Rogler presented his podium presentation entitled, “Disc Height Loss, But Not Pro-Inflammatory Cytokine or Substance P Expression, Predicts Intervertebral Disc Degeneration-Related Pain in a Rat Model” and Huizi Anna Lin presented her podium presentation entitiled, “Injectable Cellulosic Hydrogels as Nucleus Pulposus Replacements: Assessment of Herniation Risk, Fatigue Behavior, and In Vivo Biocompatibility”. Finally, Warren Hom presented his poster entitled, Cell-Seeded Adhesive Biomaterial for Repair of Annulus Fibrosus Defects in Intervertebral Discs”.

5th Annual Musculoskeletal Repair and Regeneration Symposium – October 13, 2016
Organizers and speakers of the 5th Annual Musculoskeletal Repair and Regeneration Symposium
The Mount Sinai ORL attended the 5th Annual Musculoskeletal Repair and Regeneration Symposium at Albert Einstein College of Medicine on October 13, 2016. The symposium mission is “to expand the knowledge base within the field, and to foster creativity, collaboration and networking between researchers throughout the region.”
During the symposium, Dr. Alice Huang gave a presentation entitled “Regulation of tendon regeneration” and Dr. James Iatridis presented his talk entitled “Injury, inflammation, and altered mechanotransduction in the intervertebral disc” while also serving as the Steering Chair for the “Novel views into musculoskeletal degenerative diseases” session. In addition, Rose Long presented her poster, “CD146+ phenotype of human annulus fibrosus cells induced by TGFβ1 has affinity to collagen scaffold aimed for annulus fibrosus repair” and together Matthew Gluck and Christina Beck presented their posters “In Situ Imaging of Rat Median Nerve Damage Using SHG Microscopy: Advancing Towards an In Vivo Application” and “Biomechanical Analysis of the Reduction and Association of the Scaphoid and Lunate (RASL) Technique: Screw Trajectory Matters”.
