EARLY ACADEMIC PURSUITS
Wenhan Huang began his academic journey at Southern Medical University, where he obtained his Bachelor of Clinical Medicine. He continued his education at the same institution, earning a Master of Medicine in Surgery from the Department of Joint Reconstruction and Sports Medicine under the supervision of Professor Yu Zhang. He later pursued a Doctor of Philosophy in Orthopaedics and Traumatology at The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK), where he was guided by Professor Yung Shu-hang Patrick.
PROFESSIONAL ENDEAVORS
Dr. Huang currently serves as an Attending Physician and Research Fellow in Orthopaedics at Guangdong Provincial People’s Hospital and the Guangdong Academy of Medical Sciences. His clinical practice and research focus heavily on knee osteoarthritis, sports injuries, and orthopaedic biomechanics.
Dr. Huang has made significant contributions to the field of orthopaedics through various research initiatives:
- Gait Analysis and Biomechanics: He established the Greater Bay Area Gait Alliance to conduct extensive gait examinations for knee osteoarthritis and sports injuries. His work led to the development of a gait diagram concept and the creation of an expert consensus on gait diagram evaluation for knee joint movement function.
- Customized Knee Motion Simulator: He developed a knee motion simulator to evaluate patellofemoral joint (PFJ) kinematics and biomechanical changes in ACL reconstructed knee joints, exploring their relationship with PFJ osteoarthritis.
- Cadaveric Biomechanical Studies: His studies include investigating the effects of graft tension and posterior tibial loading on PFJ biomechanics during ACL reconstruction.
