Our dissertation award winner, sponsored by our newest sponsor Treadmetrix, was Andrew Skibski.

Occasionally an athletic training class will organize a dodgeball game. Senior Lecturer Jennifer Plant leads the simulation, where students take turns acting out a shoulder injury while other students act as athletic trainers, who must administer an “on the field” assessment.

A new study by our PhD student Andrew Skibski: Ultrasound biofeedback significantly improves core muscle activation in golfers with low back pain during abdominal exercises and golf swings. Could this technique help prevent injuries on the course? #GolfFitness #SportsScience

CHPS is seeking participants for a new research study! The purpose of this study is to assess performance of athletes on a series of exercises/functional tests and assess patient-reported outcomes. To find out more, visit our research studies website at chps.ucf.edu/research/studi….
