John Broomfield

I completed my undergraduate medical degree at The University of Manchester and embarked upon a clinical career in Orthopaedic Surgery. Following completion of the intercollegiate MRCS I completed the MSc in Musculoskeletal Sciences here at The University of Oxford in 2014. This was hugely enjoyable and prompted me to pursue an academic orthopaedic career beginning with a clinical research fellowship in NDORMS. During this time I was awarded a Royal College of Surgeons of England Research Fellowship that has enabled me to continue my research and I am now a DPhil student at Lincoln College. I am investigating the role of biomarkers in early osteoarthritis of the hip and have received support from UCB Pharma.
