Assistant Professor at Westfield State University, currently teaching kinesiology, motor learning, & strength & conditioning & building up the biomechanics lab.
I'm at #NACOB2022 presenting 2 things from our split-belt adaptation collaboration with @woutersinas & @DL_Gregory23. A poster tomorrow (Monday) & podium presentation Tuesday at 2:22PM
A belated Happy National Biomechanics Day! Thanks to Olivia Elie (soon to be Westfield State grad) for helping me teach students at Holyoke High School about ground reaction forces and jumping #NBD2022#WestfieldStatebiomechanics
Our 5th #ASBFellows spotlight is Dr. Robert J. Gregor! In addition to being our 1996-97 president, he is a Founding Editor of the Journal of Applied Biomechanics. Last year, he published some "Lessons Learned" in JAB - check it out here: https://t.co/FrpnONx61z
With #vASB2021 this week, make sure to check out Olivia Elie's poster, "Optical flow perturbation effects on standing balance in people with multiple sclerosis" Wednesday in "W11 - Balance and Disease." (@FranzBiomech and I are coauthors). #Westfield_State_biomechanics
I think we and our collaborators are ready for @ASB2021_ATL!! Congratulations to all the students and post-docs for their outstanding work and productivity this year in the face of unprecedented challenges and adversity. @UNCNCSUBME @MOTION_UNC@Triangle_ASB_SC@GT_PoWeR_Lab@UF
@locomocn @RodgerKram @maxdonelan@NeuromechanicsL@drdavidhu “It wasn’t too hard. Chaco Canyon was just like the rest of their computer systems. Before leaving, they just logged out.” Best I could come up with
It’s been a great @EATA1949 Conference heading into the last day. Awesome sessions, and presenters, especially with Drs Higgins and Cacolice representing our growing program at @WestfieldState . It is always a #GreatDayToBeAnOwll#Hoothoot
@Ferris_vball In theory I agree with this, but whenever I look into publishing in a certain journal, it seems like it’s either Elsevier-published or requires huge author fees. Can you suggest biomechanics journals with ethical publishers?
On Oct. 15, ask former @NASA Astronaut @Astro_Cady anything during a virtual conversation. High school, community college, and university students are welcome!

Several days ago the American Society of #Biomechanics published this important statement on Systemic Racism, https://t.co/Ioznx0IIhn It addresses racism in society but also in our science. Thank you, President Michelle Sabick and the entire ASB Exec Board. @AmSocBiomech 1/2
Happy to announce that a paper from one of my main projects at UNC is now published. The answer to the question in the title is, "Yes. Gait variability is higher in people with MS only in the presence of optical flow perturbations"
Excited to share a new paradigm for our lab to test the neuromuscular basis for age-related deficits in precision stepping ability during walking, now available @JBiomech: https://t.co/CFqvlT27Df.
