Injury Prevention and Mobility Lab

BPK student Emily Chilton completed two co-op work terms as a research assistant at @ipml_sfu, where she got in touch with her creative side building an apparatus to study decision-making in mountain biking. Learn about @SFU_Coop at an info session Jan 25 ow.ly/x9E750MwJCp

Join our team! We're looking for a PhD student to research falls in mountain biking. Details in the link: biomch-l.isbweb.org/forum/biomch-l…

This looks like a great PhD opportunity with the @ipml_sfu lab!

Join our lab at @SFU! PhD opportunity for research on the mechanisms of falls in mountain biking: biomch-l.isbweb.org/forum/biomch-l…

Thought-provoking @CSBiomech symposium led by @SRobinovitch @v_komisar @DrMDCusimano @IBAL_Lab @NISL_uottawa highlighting recent findings on the mechanics of falls that cause head impact and injury in older adults #NACOB2022

PhD student @OmidVak presented on the dynamics of head-to-shielding impacts in ice hockey 🏒 #NACOB2022

PhD candidate @livsaguiar & UGrad Jeremiah Zacharias presented on ways to improve the accuracy of head kinematic measures from helmet-mounted sensors in ice hockey 🏒 #NACOB2022

Great to reconnect with the biomechanics community at @NACoBiomechs in Ottawa! Check out some of our trainee highlights ⬇️

We are hiring! This is a joint postdoc position between @SFU and @Lululemon. The position is focused on the R&D of wearable technology for running. Applications due on Sept 12 for an ideal start date of Oct 3. Here is a link to a full job description: sfu.ca/research/sites…

Congrats Dr. @v_komisar on joining the @NRC_CNRC — Can't wait to see what you accomplish!

Contemplating posture and gait research impact with @ISPGR Keynote @kmsibley. Impact takes work, need greater application, more funding needed.

A fascinating talk exploring learning from videos of falls of older adults in care home. Key message, bracing with upper limbs does not reduce injury, but rotating to fall backwards does. #ICAMPAM2022 @JMPBjournal @ismpb_org

Settling down to learn about how to avoid catastrophe during a fall, an #ICAMPAM2022 keynote from Steve Robinovitch.

🗣️ Seeking older adult (65+ yrs) research participants 🗣️! We want to incorporate the voices and lived experience of older adults in the future of physical activity science. See photo for details. @SFUResearch @SFUGero @SFU_FHS @BPKGrads

The future is bright! ConGRADulations to Jeremiah, Olga, @biancaate on graduating from BPK @SFU_Science 🥳 We are so proud of you & will miss you at the @ipml_sfu! #mySFUgrad
