Name:	Jon K. Sekiya, M.D.
Affiliation:	Department of Orthopaedic Surgery University of Pittsburgh
Title:	Assistant Professor

Jon Sekiya was born and raised in Honolulu, Hawaii. He attended the University of California at Davis where he received his B.S. in Electrical Engineering in 1992. He then went on to the Wake Forest University School of Medicine where he received his M.D. in 1996. He did his orthopaedic surgery residency at the University of Michigan from 1996 to 2001, completed his sports medicine and shoulder fellowship at the University of Pittsburgh's Center for Sports Medicine, and then served his 3-year military obligation at the Bone & Joint/Sports Medicine Institute. Currently he is an assistant professor in the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery at the University of Pittsburgh. His clinical and research interests include multi-ligament knee reconstructions including the PCL and posterolateral corner, meniscus transplantation, arthroscopic treatment of shoulder instability and rotator cuff tears, and failed shoulder instability repairs, particularly with bony defects of the glenoid or humeral head. He was awarded 2 research grants for $10,000 from the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons and $24,983 from the Arthroscopy Association of North America to study the effects of humeral head defects and their correction on glenohumeral translation. The co-investigators on the study are Patrick McMahon and Rich Debski and the study will be performed at the new Musculoskeletal Research Center.
