Northwestern University's Feinberg School of Medicine Prosthetics and Orthotics

Hello! My name is Mindy Thorpe, and I am an Assistant Professor at Northwestern University's Feinberg School of Medicine. I teach in the Prosthetics and Orthotics Center.

The Northwestern University Prosthetics-Orthotics Center’s (NUPOC) Master of Prosthetics and Orthotics (MPO) is a competitive, 21-month postgraduate degree offering clinically focused education in a research-rich environment within the Department of Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation. Our curriculum prepares students to become proficient, compassionate Prosthetic & Orthotic clinicians, serve persons with physical impairments, apply state-of-the-art research to clinical practice and contribute significantly to the P&O profession. More information can be found here: https://www.nupoc.northwestern.edu/ 

We have been looking to increase awareness about the field and would love to provide information to Undergraduate Advisors, Pre-Professional Clubs, and the like.  We are happy to provide a lecture about the field if any of the faculty are interested in that as well.

I’m attaching a flyer for some upcoming zoom sessions we are having. Thank you for your time!
