Kiara M. Chan studies osteoarthritis and joint damage, largely using animal models (rats, mice, and spiny mice) to understand how injuries such as meniscal (knee cartilage) damage progress into arthritis. The work examines how factors like age and physical activity affect joint degeneration and how animals adjust their movement (gait) after injury, along with laboratory techniques for measuring cartilage breakdown. This research supports the development and evaluation of osteoarthritis treatments.
