Darrick Lo's interests in orthopaedics began at Cornell University under the guide of Professors Donald Bartel and Jeremy Rawlinson as an undergraduate student. Within a joint partnership program, Darrick served as a summer research assistant at the Hospital for Special Surgery in 2001. After completing his Masters Degree in Cornell Engineering, he returned in 2002 to continue a full-time career as a Design Engineer in the Department of Biomechanics (Timothy Wright, PhD, Director).
