Dr. Voor did his undergraduate studies in Mechanical Engineering at Tulane University graduating Cum Laude, and continued at Tulane obtaining his Master of Science in Biomedical Engineering and Doctor of Philosophy in Biomedical Engineering. He is currently Associate Professor, and Director, Biomedical Engineering Laboratory, University of Louisville School of Medicine Department of Orthopaedic Surgery and has a joint appointment in the University of Louisville Speed School of Engineering Department of Bioengineering.

His background is in orthopaedic biomechanics and bone quality research and he has received significant research support from the Whitaker Foundation, NSF, DOD and the NIH. His lab has extensive experience with biomechanical testing of bone tissue as well as whole bones and various joint mechanics and implant failure testing models. He has also developed a unique in vivo high resolution (micro) CT scanning system for the study of bone quality in small (rat, mouse) and medium sized (rabbit) animals. Collaborators include the Kentucky Spinal Cord Injury Research Center (KSCIRC), the Department of Pharmacology and Toxicology, and the Physiology Department for the evaluation of bone loss or gain following spinal cord injury, ovariectomy, or various drug treatments. His most recent work is focused on hip fracture and hip fracture prevention research.
