It was a pleasure working with Sarp Sahin this past year. I can’t wait to see what the future holds for him!

We found using T1, T10, CLAV, and XP markers to define and T1, T10, CLAV, and MidSTRN markers were best to track the trunk of both males and females during sports mocap testing.
@SophiaUlman did a great job of presenting this during the Top-10 poster session at @prism_society!

Great job @SophiaUlman!

I love Wordle, but I also love Trivia, so I spent a couple hours last week and made https://t.co/SNOrxoWFm4!

It’s like Wordle but instead of guessing a word, you’re guessing the top 5 in a ranked list.

Please 🛑 stop 🛑 putting 🛑 the 🛑 term 🛑 ‘mild’ 🛑 with 🛑 concussions. 🛑 When you do, you have downplayed the brain injury that has occurred. Symptoms may be mild...but that’s all you can say about it conclusively.

How awesome is this? #scottishrite

[Henry Ellis @HenryEllisMD]

Ran into a prior Scottish Rite Amputee. 5 years after we brough him to Winter Park, he moved here and working on racing in 3-track. Amazed at what this trip does for these kids. #ScottishRiteSkiTrip. @TxScottishRite @Pedi_Sports_Med

@ford_kr @aud_westbrook @HPUWSoccer1999 @adidassoccer @aud_westbrook @ford_kr Would love it if one of you could DM me and we could discuss how you tested 30 athletes in 4 hours. We just started team testing and we definitely don’t have it down that short so I would love to pick your brain to get some ideas from you all.

Last night, our #Frisco campus shined bright with purple and gold to honor the nine lives lost over the weekend. As caregivers to young athletes, a special thank you to #KobeBryant for the positive impact he had on youth sports.
