Dr. Yuichi Hoshino, M.D. Ph.D., born on 22 July 1975, is an orthopaedic surgeon and researcher who works as a lecturer in Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Kobe University School of Medicine, Kobe, JAPAN. He specializes in knee and sports medicine. He performs over 150 arthroscopic surgeries a year, mainly ACL reconstructions. He also serves as a team physician for a professional rugby team, Kobelco Steelers, a professional baseball team, Orix Buffaloes, and a collegiate American football team, Kansai University Kaisers. His research focus is knee biomechanics, especially related to ACL. He has developed a novel knee kinematics measurement system to quantitatively evaluate the pivot-shift and conducted numerous studies to establish a standard evaluation system of rotatory knee laxity.
Dr. Hoshino finished his residency in Kobe University in 2005 and started his research activity on knee biomechanics at Kobe University. He then obtained his PhD degree in 2007. Thereafter, he had research fellowship in University of Pittsburgh from 2009 to 2011. He has published over 60 research articles in peer-reviewed journals including 17 articles as the first author.
In addition to the editorial board of AJSM, he currently has several editorial commitments for international journals, including an associate editor of JEO, an editorial board member of KSSTA, a deputy editor of JAAOS Global Research & Reviews and Journal of Mechanics in Medicine and Biology (JMMB). He is an active member of internationally established orthopaedics societies, such as ISAKOS, ESSKA, AAOS, ORS and ACL study group.
