Finally #PhDone! Can’t believe I finally get to sign my emails Ella Small, Ph.D. ☺️

🚨 New paper alert! 🚨 Check out @shwalford's latest work on how hand pattern and shoulder muscle weakness each affect glenohumeral joint contact forces during manual wheelchair propulsion👨‍🦽 asmedigitalcollection.asme.org/biomechanical/… ⚙️ ASME Journals ⚙️ #Biomechanics #OpenSim #wheelchair

This month’s #ThrowbackThursday paper is the most-cited article from five years ago this month. Researchers from UT Austin and BrooksRehabilitation reviewed the measurement and control mechanisms of dynamic balance during human movement. doi.org/10.1115/1.4042…

Gearing up for the Olympics? 🥇 Perfect time to check out Ella Small, PhD's gymnastics 🤸‍♀️ study and all of the other exciting sports research from #ISBS2024 #gymnastics #sportsbiomechanics #olympics #Paris2024

What a GRAND time in the Tetons last week at the inaugural Frontiers of Human Performance Meeting! We had invigorating discussions, spent time in nature, and made some friends along the way. 🦬🏔️🫎 Many thanks to the Wu Tsai Human Performance Alliance for making this happen.

We have some great work highlighted this year at #ASB2024! Come on by and let's talk all things biomechanics...from cartwheels to carbon fiber feet! American Society of Biomechanics

🚨 New publication alert! UTexas NMBL My 2 new papers on the #Biomechanics of the #BalanceBeam are finally out! The 1st talks about the 3 techniques we discovered that gymnasts use to do a back handspring 🤸‍♀️ tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10… ½

The 2nd paper goes deeper using #Modeling & #Simulation to look at the differences in the techniques. (Here's where I hear Rick Neptune UTexas NMBL saying back in my day you could just write 1 long paper with both experimental & simulation data 😁) tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10… 2/2

🤘🤘🤘 #WhatStartsHere

🚨 New Paper Alert! sciencedirect.com/science/articl… The final paper from my PhD is out, completing my trilogy of #gymnastics papers and providing an in depth #biomechanical analysis of the balance beam 🤸‍♀️ UTexas NMBL Journal of Biomechanics #SportsScience

Texas Engineering wrote an amazing piece about my research and the work we did at UTexas NMBL. I had an great time talking with their team for this article, and I am honored they chose to share my story! #WhatStartsHere magazine.engr.utexas.edu/2024/engineeri…

Excited to see work from our group highlighted in Texas Engineer magazine. A research focus in our lab is sports biomechanics and we love to see our work translate into training insights for cycling🚴, baseball ⚾️, gymnastics🤸and more! magazine.engr.utexas.edu/2024/engineeri…

Hook 'em 🤠🤘? More like HOOKE 'em 👩‍🎓🦿! Congratulations to Dr. Stephanie Molitor, PhD who successfully defended her PhD dissertation on Lower-Limb Joint Quasi-Stiffness During Walking! We are so proud of you! 🧡 #PhD #biomechanics #stiffness #HookesLaw

🚨New paper alert! Thrilled to see our latest publication featured as IntSoc Biomechanics's Biomech-L "pick-of-the-week." Congrats Stephanie Molitor, PhD 🎉 #QuasiStiffness #Modeling #Simulation #Biomechanics

We have some great work to share from Kristen Stewart, Stephanie Molitor, PhD and Eric Hu this year at #ASB2025! Looking forward to some great conversations and connections this week! American Society of Biomechanics
