Aim & Scope

FORE's Spine research program is committed to improving outcomes for patients with complex spinal conditions through rigorous clinical investigation. Our board-certified spine surgeons participate in industry-sponsored trials, real-world evidence registries, and prospective outcome studies spanning lumbar fusion, pain management, and biological bone graft technology.

By partnering with leading medical device and biologics companies, our team evaluates cutting-edge surgical tools and techniques in real clinical settings, contributing meaningful evidence that advances the standard of care in spine surgery locally and nationally.
