Description
The HipKnee Arkansas Foundation (HKA) is a state-of-the-art motion analysis and research center based in Little Rock, Arkansas that integrates research in orthopedics, biomechanics, gait analysis, sports science, and motion capture. It is a nonprofit laboratory that is directed by C. Lowry Barnes, MD.

We also conduct clinical trials for investigational devices such as total knee replacement implants and clinical research to enhance surgical techniques.

We are also looking to expand our efforts to include athletes for purposes of increasing sports performance.
