For those asking, we also encourage non-black Allies to attend! This year’s meetings are specifically focused on the needs and interests of the Black biomechanics community. We’d love for you to join us to listen to and learn about our experiences. #ASBBlack #vASB2020

Alternatives to “hey, guys” for inclusivity and correctness (great to practice during all those Zoom meetings). huffpost.com/entry/gendered…

Incredibly well-done presentations from Helen J. Huang and her doctoral students in the BRaINUT lab! Take a look if you're interested in gait and perturbations, or if you just appreciate high-quality figures 👌🏻

Looking forward to learning more about research from other womxn like Kenzie Friesen in biomechanics! Should be interesting to take a step outside lower extremity for a bit too 🤓

Not all muscle atrophy is created equal...Read about how muscle atrophy following joint injury is distinctly different from disuse atrophy, and the important implications for therapeutic rehabilitation Lindsey K Lepley Julie Burland ATOAC

My interview with FemNeuro.org is up on their site! I talked about the minority experience in STEM ❤️ feel free to check out this feature along with several others 🥰

🚨🚨 Multiple ORB members produced great works in the Journal of Orthopaedic Research® special ACL issue including Steven Garcia, Dr. Riann Palmieri-Smith, McKenzie White, and Lindsey K Lepley! Check it (and all the other great works) out here! 👇

Call for subjects: if you are age 18-45 and have had ACL surgery, you are eligible to participate in a study exploring the links between thigh muscles and the brain. Flyer: myumi.ch/3kg99

Interested in finding out which open-source pose-estimation tool is more accurate for kinematic gait analysis? Our article comparing different pre-trained pose-estimation models is out in gait and posture ISPGR (w/Rajiv Ranganathan and E. Peter Washabaugh): authors.elsevier.com/a/1fbtp3RoQ8ex….

You LOVE to see it 😍😍!!!

Great work Steven 👏🏼🤓

Let's make it twitter-official😌 I've joined the ORB Lab at Michigan Kinesiology University of Michigan as a Postdoctoral Research Fellow to work on the MiACLR project with Dr. Riann Palmieri-Smith and Dr. Alexa Johnson and all the other lab members. Super excited for all the amazing things we are gonna achieve this year!

Very happy and excited to announce that we received an NIH STTR Phase-I grant with our small business partner NewGait (thenewgait.com) to develop and test the NewGait system for post-stroke gait rehabilitation.

Interested in getting a PhD with research focused on ACL injury/rehabilitation? Come work with me and the great group in the ORB lab and School of Kinesiology! I am seeking a PhD student to start in Fall 2023. Link to the application can be found here: kines.umich.edu/admissions-aid…

Congrats 🎉 can’t wait to read the pub!

Exciting news! Profs. EJ Rouse and C. Krishnan received a ~$3.1 million NIH R01 grant to investigate the functional implications of stroke and botulinum neurotoxin on ankle muscle stiffness and viscosity during gait! #stroke #botox @UMichPMR Michigan Medicine @NICHD_NIH Michigan Robotics

Come join the conversation on🚶‍♀️🚶🚶‍♂️mechanics post-ACLR with experts in the field from the ORB Lab: Dr. Riann Palmieri-Smith, Steven Garcia, and Chandramouli Krishnan. Elanna Arhos will be leading the interview. Event is open to all!! We will discuss the following 2 papers— see 🧵 below:

Friday, 6/23, 3:30pm: Lexie Beemer will defend her dissertation, "Is virtual instruction an effective method to increase physical activity in children within the home environment?" Chair: Rebecca Hasson. SKB 2150. #GoBlue
