Texas Scottish Rite Hospital for Children (TSRHC) strongly encourages research throughout the hospital so that the children we care for will receive the best possible treatment. The research program at TSRHC is both highly productive and world-renowned for groundbreaking research in areas such as orthopedics (including scoliosis treatment and limb deformity correction), hand and upper limb surgery, neuromuscular diseases and learning disorders.

A strong clinical and basic science research program in the field of spinal deformity continues to maintain the hospital’s leadership role in this field. These research endeavors have led to new ideas and concepts, many of which are presented each year as scientific papers that have shaped the manner in which spinal deformity is treated today.

TSRHC takes pride in its spirit of cooperation and mutual assistance, which has led to an exceptional number of patents, discoveries, improved treatments, journal articles and visiting lectures throughout the past two decades.
