A quick reminder that Ontario Tech is hosting Ontario Biomechanics Conference 2025! We are excited to welcome labs from across the province for great student research presentations and peer discussions. Abstract submissions are due March 31. #OBC2025OTU

Had a great time at #IEA2024 presenting my work some two recent projects. I got the opportunity to meet some fantastic people affecting big change in ergonomics and science. Great work coming out of @nladelfa #ONELab from @ontariotech_u

[Ryan Foley @foleyneuromech]

A big congratulations in order for Shane and Gillian, two Research Practicum students from the Ontario Tech #ONELab tackling projects from motor neuron physiology to simulating rehab protocols. I'm always very proud to work with such great researchers @ontariotech_u @nladelfa

[Nick La Delfa @nladelfa]

Thanks @a9lang for hosting us last week! Great to learn from your lab and explore the beautiful USask campus!

[Canadian Centre for Rural and Agricultural Health @USaskCCRAH]

We are happy to have had Dr. Nicholas La Delfa and PhD student Mike Watterworth from @ontariotech_u visit us at the Centre! They came to learn about scapular kinematics, share their research, and to discuss future collaborations with Dr. Angelica Lang and the MHE Lab!

[ISG2024 @isg2024]

Come join us at the 2024 meeting of the International Shoulder Group June 4-5 at York University in Toronto, ON, CA! More info: https://t.co/PsKqXGXM4i @ISG_biomech

This was such a cool idea. Amazing to see the progression! @DrMeghannLloyd

[Theia @theiamarkerless]

Crawl, walk, run!

What's the best way to showcase motor development principles in your biomechanics tutorial? If you are a biomechanist at @ontariotech_u, you could just bring your son into the lab and turn on #Theia3D! @foleyneuromech @nladelfa

[Ontario Tech University @ontariotech_u]

A pair of @OT_FHSc students garnered national attention for their scholarship and research at the Association of Canadian Ergonomists conference held earlier this month.

Little biomechanist on the move! @theiamarkerless

@ACE_ergo Congrats Justin, Mike, Kate and all student award winners and nominees. The future of ergo research in Canada is bright!

[ACE Ergo Canada @ACE_ergo]

We are BACK Baby! Just finished out first in-person #keynotespeaker session with the incomparable @JR_Potvin. Great turnout with over 200 attendees. Stay tuned for clips from our vendors and other highlights #ergonomics #connectedinErgonomics #ace2023

Welcome to the KINE team, Joseph!

[Ontario Tech Health Sciences @OT_FHSc]

The Faculty of Health Sciences welcomes Joseph Gurgis, Assistant Teaching Professor to the Kinesiology team! KINE students will be able to connect and learn lots from Joseph's experiences! @ontariotech_u @nladelfa @Kine_OTU @ONKinesiology

[Ryan Foley @foleyneuromech]

This feels pretty special to watch already, can't wait to see his journey to walking take shape.
Thanks @theiamarkerless for the guidance on making this happen.

Some pediatric gait progression data for @DrMeghannLloyd 's motor development class at @ontariotech_u

[Ontario Tech Health Sciences @OT_FHSc]

Happening in Dr. La Delfa’s biomechanics & ergonomics lab today! PhD candidate Ryan Foley and Kinesiology UG student Gillian Slade are using using wireless electromyography and motion capture for a field-based ergonomics project. @nladelfa @foleyneuromech @ontariotech_u

[Ontario Tech Health Sciences @OT_FHSc]

In Dr. La Delfa’s biomechanics & ergonomics lab today! Mya Ching’anda is busy working on her NSERC undergraduate scholarship project. There will be a demonstration of newer motion capture and VR equipment next Wednesday so stay tuned. @nladelfa @foleyneuromech @ontariotechu

[Nick La Delfa @nladelfa]

@ontariotech_u #Kinesiology Faculty were representing in full force at the @OT_FHSc convocation yesterday! (shenanigans ensued). Congrats to the class of 2023! #OntarioTechGrad

[Nick La Delfa @nladelfa]

Let's gooo!

[Ontario Tech University @ontariotech_u]

There truly is something for every age at Ontario Tech.

@UA_magazine chats with @DrSDogra about an @OT_FHSc course that is combatting ageism and our Age-Friendly University programming.

Had a great week at #appliedergonomics conference in New Orleans. Proud of @foleyneuromech and Mike Watterworth for great presentations at their first international ergo meeting!

[Ryan Foley @foleyneuromech]

Is your dominant limb 10% stronger and should that impact ergonomic assessments? I presented our work synthesizing the evidence on the effect of hand dominance on upper extremity strength at #AppliedErgo2023. 👇

[Jim Potvin @JR_Potvin]

I'm excited to announce the formation of Work(s) Ergo Inc. (@worksergo) with Dr. Mike Agnew, and the launch of "Work(s)", a ground-breaking, web-based ergonomics assessment software package.
