Research with an impact
The Injury Biomechanics and Aging Laboratory (IBAL) is currently working to expand the knowledge of musculoskeletal biomechanics related to human health and injury prevention, and the role that advanced age has on these relationships. The general research fields can be divided into:
- Balance and falls
- Ergonomics
- Head impact and helmet testing
- Hip impact and intervention product testing
