🚨 Ultrasound + Bone Shape = New Research! 🚨 We developed a novel B-Score 🧮 using an ultrasound-based statistical shape model 🩻 to measure femoral bone shape post-ACLR 🦵 ✅ Accessible ✅ Accurate (92%!) ✅ Early detection potential 📖 Full study 👉shorturl.at/lto3A

🎊 Join us in celebrating Jessica Tolzman first-ever publication! 🥳📚 Her research in JSAMS highlights that ultrasound-assessed thigh fat thickness can validly estimate body fat % in female athletes, making body composition monitoring more accessible for sports teams.⚽🏑🏀

Not the result I personally wanted, but it was fun to see the Avs and Blackhawks with ⁦Elanna Arhos⁩ and ⁦⁦Steven Garcia⁩!

‼️New wireless ultrasound research‼️ Can wireless ultrasound match traditional ultrasound in assessing knee cartilage? We tested two normalization techniques—auto-gain & algebraic normalization—to find out! 🦵 Is this the future of accessible imaging?

Major collaborative effort now out in JOSPT Community Musculoskeletal Tissue Asymmetries Following Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction We dive into how tissue imbalances affect recovery and why sex matters.🦵🧵 (1/5)

Getting my poster prepped for my 1st #ORS2025 . Really excited to learn about all the great upcoming science, and meet new colleagues! If anyone is also attending, Drop a DM or email ([email protected]) — I would love to meet up, chat about science and potential collaborations!

I need people to understand how difficult it is to get an NIH grant. You spend months writing a proposal, following strict guidelines that include a detailed multiyear budget, bios of everyone on your team, plans for participant safety & ethical conduct. Then you send it off -1/n

📢AMPL's first publication of the year!😊 This study explores nonlinear movement variability in postural control under manipulated sensory feedback. Check it out!👀 #SampEN #CAI #SensoryReweightingSystem #VestibularFeedback #PosturalControl #AMPL

Many think osteoarthritis (OA) is a 'wear and tear' problem. While the instigator may be traumatic (think ACL injury), framing it as wear-and-tear can cause patients to think exercise will make things worse. So understanding why cartilage loves load is important...🧵👇 1/7

Check out our recent paper looking at lower limb inter-joint coordination and total support moments during walking in those with & w/o ACLR! This was a fun and interesting new analysis to learn - give it a read below! authors.elsevier.com/c/1l18Y4-6-ljkU Derek Pamukoff Dr. Riann Palmieri-Smith @ JD Dennis

And the final dissertation paper is out! A labor of love (aren’t they all…). We investigated cartilage composition after ACLR using a single graft type (BPTB). Which joint was more affected?! 👀 Lindsey K Lepley Dr. Riann Palmieri-Smith Steven Garcia ORB Lab pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40400186/

I am incredibly excited to share that I have been awarded the NIDILRR Merit Switzer Research Fellowship for Doctoral Dissertation Research! A big thank you to my mentor, Lindsay Hannigan, for all her support!

Congrats to our PhD students ⁦Jiaqi (Jackie) Wang⁩ and ⁦Willa Ma⁩ for the ⁦ACSM_BIG⁩ Student Research Awards!
