Biomotion Research Group

Researchers in this group study normal and pathological function which can ultimately be applied to the improved evaluation and treatment of musculoskeletal disease and injury. The goals are addressed by studying normal subjects and patients with injury or disease that influence the function of the musculoskeletal system. In addition, the biomotion group is committed to the development of improved methods for the measurement and analysis of human movement. The biomotion laboratory is an important component in the overall biomechanics research within the mechanical engineering department.
