Starting the week off strong, congratulations Dr. Hassan Farah! 🎉🎉🎉

[Dr. Robin Queen @rmqueen_VT]

Incomparable ‘23 @GranataLab grads! 5 MS, 1 PhD & 2 proud/tired #mentors. Congrats @MichaelTeaterVT @tyana_scott @Robyn_HansenVT @bvasquezzz Jenna & Jorjie. Thanks for the amazing opportunity to work with each of you & to play a small role in your journey! @BEAMvt @VTEngineering

[Granata Lab @GranataLab]

The lab spent the day at the @BEAMvt - @WakeBME SBES Symposium presenting oral presentations and posters on their research. Glad to see everyone there today sharing their work! @FralinBiomed #Biomechanics

[Sabrina Campelo, PhD @sabrinancampelo]

8 months in the making—I had the privilege (and challenge) of organizing the 2023 @BEAMvt @WakeBME cross campus symposium at @FralinBiomed. 200+ attendees, 51 oral presentations, 8 sponsors, 74 posters. Hats off to all conference organizers. Couldn’t have done it without my team!

[Michael Teater, PhD, ACTAR @MichaelTeaterVT]

Incredibly grateful for all the support and guidance my committee provided to me throughout this project! I'm excited to update and finalize my written document and continue progressing in the endlessly fascinating field of #InjuryBiomechanics

[Dr. Robin Queen @rmqueen_VT]

Amazing sports biomechanics & #ACL project focused on limb stiffness. Congrats Dr. @MichaelTeaterVT on successfully defending your dissertation. Thanks to his amazing committee @snake_flyer Dan Schmitt from the @ALLabDuke, @Ferris_vball and Miguel Perez! @BEAMvt @VTEngineering

We spend today remembering the 32 we lost @virginia_tech and the strength of the VT community. We were not able to all be together and we all found ways to honor and #neVerforgeT those we lost. @tyana_scott @rmqueen_VT @MichaelTeaterVT @BEAMvt @VTEngineering

It was an absolute pleasure working alongside @theresa_libera and the @GranataLab to plan out National #Biomechanics Day!! We had over 300 participants and several labs showing off their cool research😎 @BiomechanicsDay

Haven't seen a better representation of what a Ph.D. is/should be.

Had the best time at the 2023 annual @NASEMTRB meeting in DC😁 Excited to announce I won the Best Presentation Award in the Doctoral Student Research in Transportation Safety hybrid session (hosted by the AED60 committee). Thanks to all who organized, attended, and participated!

lol who did this

[Dr. Robin Queen @rmqueen_VT]

Great time with @GranataLab students @MichaelTeaterVT & @Robyn_HansenVT presenting in 2 #anatomy classes today @BburgHSBruins. It is always great to share #research and explore the connections between what students are learning and future job options. @BEAMvt @VTEngineering

Even with the reputation of the turf at MetLife Stadium, I definitely didn't think ACL tear when I first saw this

[NFL Unlimited @NFLUnlimited]

Video of #Giants Sterling Shepard injury. Very scary �

[Theia @theiamarkerless]

The @GranataLab is a beautiful space on the picturesque @virginia_tech campus. Check out some of the latest applications of #Theia3D from @rmqueen_VT, @theresa_libera and team #markerless

[Andrea Hudy, PhD @A_Hudy]

Building durability to keep availability ✅

[Granata Lab @GranataLab]

Congrats to PhD candidate @theresa_libera for passing her prelim proposal! Can’t wait to see what she discovers in her #biomechanics #research of lifting and loading in postpartum women! @rmqueen_VT @BEAMvt

[Dr. Lynn Snyder-Mackler @doclsmack]

Another celebration ACL injury.

[Granata Lab @GranataLab]

When we’re not in the office drafting abstracts and manuscripts or conducting literature reviews, we spend our time breaking in new #research equipment like the @theiamarkerless system and @FirstPitchInc football passing machine.

[Granata Lab @GranataLab]

Early this morning some of our #grad students drove south to Winston-Salem for the SBES Symposium hosted by @WakeBME. Whether it’s an oral presentation or a poster session, we’re looking forward to sharing our #biomechanics #research throughout the day.

@BEAMvt @VTEngineering

[Granata Lab @GranataLab]

Congrats to PhD candidate @MichaelTeaterVT for his successful prelim proposal! We’re excited to see what you learn about differences in jump landing tasks between sexes in your #biomechanics #research. @BEAMvt

[Granata Lab @GranataLab]

Congrats to M.S. student @brisbane_julia for her successful thesis defense “The Impact of Race on Plantar Loading and Research Engagement”.

And special acknowledgments to @novel_USA and committee members @rmqueen_VT @matthewbam @JeremiLondon @baker_drph for their support!
