American Orthopaedic Society of Sports Medicine (AOSSM) highlights Beth E. Shubin Stein, MD, sports medicine surgeon and co-director of the Women Sports Medicine Center at HSS, as a co-recipient of the Sports Medicine Multicenter Research Grant for her project JUPITER 4.0 (Justifying Patellar Instability Treatment by Early Results) on patella instability. The project received a historic $400,000 during the 2022 AOSSM Annual Meeting in Colorado Springs.

Dr. Shubin Stein and Dr. Shital Parikh (Cincinnati Children’s Hospital), established the JUPITER Group in 2017 as the first multicenter patellar instability study. Twenty-six surgeons representing 12 sites across the country have prospectively enrolled over 1,500 subjects. All patients enrolled in JUPITER will be followed for 10 years after either operative or non-operative treatment to gain insight into treatment protocol modifications to help optimize outcomes.
