For nearly twenty years, patients, alumni, academic peers, industry peers, and friends of the department have come to identify our logo to be synonymous with the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery and Rehabilitation at UNMC. This month, we are sharing some details about the logo’s history. 
\n 
\nThe logo was created in 2002 by Professor Hani Haider, PhD, Director of the Orthopaedics Biomechanics & Advanced Surgical Technologies Laboratory. After approval from the University of Nebraska, it has been used alongside the UNMC logo in many department publications, posters and presentations at local, national and international orthopaedic meetings. It is also featured on our department’s Wall of Honor, a series of brushed metal plaques that permanently recognize individuals who have contributed $100,000 or more in support of the department’s mission.
\n 
\nThe logo comprises a well-known tree symbol straightened by a solid structure symbolizing Nebraska. The right-side pillar of the 'N' supports and straightens the ‘crooked tree.’ This symbolizes the musculoskeletal care offered by our surgeons to patients who entrust their treatment to UNMC.  
\n 
\nThe ‘crooked tree’ symbol, created by Nicholas Andry, dates back to 1741 and has been adopted worldwide as the symbol for orthopaedics. Andry’s original ‘crooked tree’ symbol depicts a straight stake tied to a crooked sapling, a metaphor for the correction of bone deformities in children and now interpreted as human bones in general. Orthopaedic departments and societies throughout the world have adapted this image in several ways to represent their locale and strong points of the department.
\n 
\nA solid 3-D 'N' was utilized to represent Nebraska's strength and reputation. The logo was designed to illustrate the impact of state-of-the-art research and education taking place in Nebraska in the field of orthopaedic surgery, both nationally and internationally. <\/p>\n<\/a><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
