new validation study led by @BiomecKSong showing that #markerless motion capture generates great inverse kinematic and inverse dynamics results!

goodbye tedious post-processing to catch marker swapping!

hello rapid and robust movement analysis!

Very excited for Todd to train as a doctoral student in our lab!

[Todd J Hullfish @BiomechHullfish]

They're still using a picture from my first day in the lab back in 2016 (!!!) but I'm very excited to have "Staff" changed to "Graduate" as I start my PhD orientation today! Looking forward to continuing my work as a graduate student!

[BaxterLabHQ @BaxterLabHQ]

Really exciting news! 🥳🥃🎉

[Todd J Hullfish @BiomechHullfish]

Taking a quick break from grant writing to announce that I will officially be starting my PhD training this fall in @BaxterLabHQ!

A huge thank you to everyone who's helped me get here! (And an extra thanks to @joshrbaxter for agreeing to put up with me for another 4 years)

It was great to visit @UDtendongroup and talk tendon.

[Todd J Hullfish @BiomechHullfish]

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.

Congrats to @joshrbaxter @pennmotionlab (U Penn) & @kgSilbernagel @bio_stats (@UDelawarePT) on their new 5-yr @NIH_NIAMS R01 grant👏👏

This novel study will determine loading profiles & biomarkers that explain healing & functional outcomes of patients with Achilles tendinopathy!

Congrats John!

[Biomedical Postdoctoral Programs @PennBPP]

Congratulations to Dr. John Drazan (@Sports2STEM), @PennPORT_IRACDA Fellow at the @pennmotionlab, on his new faculty position. John is heading to @FairfieldU in the Dept. of Biomedical Engineering next fall as a tenure track Asst. Professor.

Best wishes to you, John.

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).

[Ultrasound Research Lab@Penn (Sehgal Lab) @URLatPenn]

Drew Heinmiller from @VisualSonics will be presenting a webinar on the use of high-resolution ultrasound imaging and photoacoustic in small animals. Webinar is moderated by Dr Sandy Sehgal, Director of ultrasound research. @PennRadiology @PennMDForum @PennCancer @PennMedNews

A fantastic new book "Biomechanics of Movement
The Science of Sports, Robotics, and Rehabilitation" by Tom Uchida & Scott Delp is out now! I encourage every Biomechanist to pickup a copy https://t.co/hgTvfFKZM2

[Hannah Dailey @DaileyOrthoLab]

Hey, #STEM undergrads, do you want to work with an amazing research team this summer and get paid to do it? We are recruiting a student from #MechE #BioE #CS or related major for this exciting NSF-funded project. Deadline for priority applications is Friday, Feb. 12!

[Karl Zelik @KarlZelik]

Representation matters. TV/movies play a role in inspiring current & next generation of scientists, engineers & innovators.

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: https://t.co/iRSAzm3lg2
Applications due Jan 31, 2021

[Brian Umberger @BrianUmberger]

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! https://t.co/mLoSulPIjM

[BaxterLabHQ @BaxterLabHQ]

great funding opportunity for graduating PhDs wanting a rich post-doctoral training experience. Consider applying and our lab!
