PhD Candidate

Research focus

Kenzie investigates biomarkers in clinical and engineered bone and cartilage samples using quantitative spectral (MARS) CT imaging. Her aim is to validate the technology’s ability to quantitatively image bone ingrowth in and adjacent to 3D-printed titanium implants.

Kenzie is supervised by Professor Tim Woodfield, Dr Khoon Lim and Professor Gary Hooper.
