About

Bernard N. Stulberg is a prominent orthopedic surgeon and researcher whose work has significantly advanced the field of robotic-assisted joint replacement surgery, with a particular focus on total knee arthroplasty (TKA). His research centers on the integration of cutting-edge robotic technologies into surgical practice, evaluating their safety, effectiveness, and practical implementation in clinical settings. Stulberg has made notable contributions to understanding how active robotic systems — which perform automated bone resections to optimize surgical precision — can be safely and effectively adopted by surgical teams. His highly cited 2021 study on the learning curve for active robotic TKA (60 citations) provided critical insights into how surgeons adapt to novel robotic platforms, a question essential for widespread clinical adoption. Complementing this, his multicenter clinical trial (19 citations) demonstrated the safety and effectiveness of these systems across diverse patient populations, lending robust evidence to support their broader use. Through multiple influential publications in 2021 alone, Stulberg has helped shape the evidence base guiding the future of robotic orthopedic surgery. His work is invaluable for surgeons, trainees, and researchers seeking to understand both the promise and practical realities of robotic technologies in modern knee replacement procedures.
