The review committee was impressed by Amir’s accomplishments including holding numerous peer-review grants in arthroplasty as well as leading clinical trials. He has had several articles published in significant journals. In the words of one of the committee members, it was “one of the easiest decisions on a CAR that they have ever been involved with.”
