  • Professor of Orthopaedic Surgery and Musculoskeletal Science (Immunology & Infection)

Research interests

Professor Neal Millar is an Academic Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon specialising in shoulder surgery, having completed shoulder fellowships in Sydney and New York.

His research interest lies in investigating the molecular pathophysiology of tendinopathy; an overuse injury, characterised by tendon pain and weakness with a significant burden of disease.

Past work has highlighted the role of inflammation and cytokines in tendon disease and is currently focused on understanding the role of microRNA in the post transcriptional regulation of collagen synthesis and immediate tissue repair processes implicated in tendinopathy.

Neal's work has been generously funded by the Wellcome Trust, Arthritis Research UK, The Scottish Funding Council, the Chief Scientist Office (CSO) of the Scottish Government Health and Social Care Directorates and Scottish Enterprise grants.
