About
Dr. Janine Molino is a rising biomechanics researcher whose work bridges orthopedic surgery and musculoskeletal engineering. Her primary research areas include adult spinal deformity treatment, hand biomechanics, and preclinical animal modeling for joint disorders. Dr. Molino’s most impactful study, “Treatment of adult deformity surgery by orthopedic and neurological surgeons” (2023, 8 citations), critically examines trends in surgical techniques and costs, highlighting specialty-driven disparities in patient care. She has made significant contributions to understanding thumb carpometacarpal (CMC) joint mechanics, with her 2024 in vitro study (4 citations) characterizing passive joint behavior under load. Her innovative use of porcine carpus models (2024, 2 citations) offers a validated preclinical platform for human wrist research, addressing a critical gap in translational orthopedics. Notably, her preliminary work on osteophytes (2024, 1 citation) explores how degenerative changes alter CMC joint biomechanics, with implications for osteoarthritis treatment. Dr. Molino’s research, though early in her career, demonstrates a clear trajectory toward improving surgical outcomes through biomechanical evidence, making her a promising voice in orthopedic innovation.
