The BOHM lab has a new publication! MSc student Liana Tennant was the first author of "The effect of work boots on knee mechanics and center of pressure at the knee during static kneeling" published in the Journal of Applied Biomechanics.
Two members of the BOHM lab attended the annual Association of Canadian Ergonomists (ACE) conference this year; both students had podium presentations. The ACE conference brings together professional ergonomists, researchers, and industrial representative to discuss the current state of workplace design considerations and worker health.
The BOHM lab is happy to welcome two new members to our team: Gary Mangan (PhD - far right) and Dustin Maier (MSc - second from left). Gary is joining us from Wilfrid Laurier University and Dustin is returning from an engineering position in industry.
