Cari Whyne, PhD, FIOR, is the Susanne and William Holland Chair in Musculoskeletal Research at Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre in Toronto. She is a Senior Scientist and the Director of the Holland Bone and Joint Research Program at Sunnybrook Research Institute and a Full Professor in the Department of Surgery, Institute of Biomaterials and Biomedical Engineering and Institute of Medical Sciences at the University of Toronto. Dr. Whyne received her BSc. in Mechanical Engineering from Queen’s University and her PhD from the University of California Berkeley / University of California San Francisco in Bioengineering. The focus of her work is clinically translational bioengineering research. Dr. Whyne’s research integrates biomechanical analyses with basic science, preclinical and clinical investigations, including extensive work in computational image analysis, machine learning, micro-imaging and finite element modeling techniques. Her work also incorporates design, simulation, evaluation and clinical translation of novel less/minimally invasive surgical techniques and devices. The primary foci of Dr Whyne’s research are cancer in bone, spinal/lower extremity/thin bone biomechanics, arthroplasty and fracture fixation/healing.
