An exciting day in the @BaxterLabHQ today as we took a field trip to visit @UDtendongroup! The most exciting part? After years doing research I was finally a subject in a study that wasn't part of my own lab! Big shout-out to @RightNaoPT and @scattonesilva for having me.

This week, answering our question "what does 'biomechanics' research look like to you?" -we are joined in our Member Spotlight by Kayla Seymore, a doctoral student in the University of Delaware (@udelaware) and a co-founder of the Black Biomechanists Association (@blackbiomechs).

R/T's appreciated! I have a funded opportunity for a visiting student to work in my lab through the Summer Program for Undergraduate Research (SPUR) at the University of Utah. Check out the project: our.utah.edu/spur/2021-proje… Applications due Jan 31, 2021
Do you have a computational bent and want to do a cool PhD on musculoskeletal trait evolution and bipedal walking/running in our hominin ancestors? I am seeking a PhD student to work on just such an NSF-funded project at Michigan. Retweets appreciated! biomch-l.isbweb.org/forum/bi…

Do you have a child age 5 to 17, typically-developing or having been diagnosed with a developmental disability? Please consider participating in our study! If you wish to participate after reading our flyer, please follow this link to our survey: auburn.qualtrics.com/jfe/for…
My baby has finally made it out into the world! Excited to share what we've been calling SPACEBOOT, the immobilizing boot we strapped a bunch of electronics onto to measure Achilles tendon loading.
