Completed Projects
Blood Flow Restriction following ACL Reconstruction. Funded by the Foundation for Physical Therapy. Collaborators Scott Telfer (UW Orthopedics & Sports Medicine). We are evaluating the effects of blood flow restriction training during physical therapy on quadriceps strength and return-to-sport ability.
Physical Demands of Basketball Across Skill Levels. Funded by Adidas AG. We are using video- and sensor-based coding to quantify movement type, intensity, and frequency during basketball play across a range of skill levels and gender.
Footwear Features and their Influence on Running Performance. Funded by Diadora S.P.A. We are examining how different features of running footwear influence mechanics, physiology, and perception to make more precise recommendations to the runner about shoe selection.
Footwear Perception. funded by Adidas AG. collaborator Dr. Rich Gonzalez (University of Michigan). We studied recreational and elite runners to help assess how runners perceive and utilize different types of shoes.
Sensor technology and complex analytics to assess, monitor, and predict injury in elite baseball pitchers. Funded by the Exercise and Sport Science Initiative, University of Michigan. collaborators Dr. Stephen Cain (University of Michigan), Dr. Michael Freehill (Stanford University).
Adaptive response and variability for injury resilience in adult distance runners. Funded by the Michigan Institute for Clinical and Health Research, University of Michigan.
Biomechanics and footwear needs of pregnant and postpartum runners. Funded by adidas AG. collaborator Jessica Zendler (Zendler Scientific).
