Meet the team: Christine Pratt [PPAG Member]
Please welcome Christine Pratt as a patient partner on the MODES study. Christine has experienced knee pain and instability, with her knee giving out unexpectedly during everyday activities like walking or going downstairs. She was invited to participate in a knee pain study involving several weeks of physical exercise, and after the study ended, she continued the exercises twice a week out of her own determination. As a result, her knee pain has resolved, and she experienced additional benefits to her overall fitness. She has since shared the exercises that worked for her with friends and family and remains grateful to the team and researchers working to help others facing similar challenges. Christine is dedicated to advancing the science behind knee osteoarthritis and contributing to the development of interventions that can improve the lives of people living with this condition.
Welcome, Christine!
