Selected Presentations

John W. Frymoyer Lecture. Department of Orthopaedics and Rehabilitation, McClure Musculoskeletal Research Center, The University of Vermont. Burlington, VT. September 11, 2013.

Vanderbilt University Institute of Imaging Science (VUIIS) Founders Series Lecture, 2015.

Dr. Potter is the Coleman Chair in MRI research.  Her prior and current research interests lie in the use of quantitative MR imaging as a biomarker for assessment of early depletion of matrix from cartilage and fibrocartilage, as well as the reduction of susceptibility artifact around orthopaedic hardware. Dr. Potter’s MRI laboratory is actively funded by the NIH NIAM, and she serves as the site PI for a multicenter feasibility trial establishing imaging and biochemical technologies as measures of knee cartilage composition following acute ACL injury. She has been the co-recipient of the AOA research award, the Cabaud award for excellence in basic science research from the AOSSM and the Nicholas Andry award from the ABJS.  She has continuously served on several NIH/NIAMS Study Sections since 2007, and the research committee of the AOSSM. Many of her current basic science imaging projects have been successfully transported into clinical use and implementation.
