The MOBIOS Lab conducts research at the intersection of medical imaging, computational simulation, and\u00a0<\/span><\/span>mechanics to answer clinical and basic science questions in\u00a0<\/span><\/span>orthopaedic<\/span><\/span>\u00a0bioengineering. We are\u00a0<\/span><\/span>interested in clinical rehabilitation in populations such as stroke and cerebral palsy, human performance in\u00a0<\/span><\/span>recreational and competitive athletes, muscle-connective tissue interaction at multiple scales, and\u00a0<\/span><\/span>understanding aging of the human musculoskeletal system from\u00a0<\/span><\/span>in utero\u00a0<\/span><\/span>to old age. Sitting between the\u00a0<\/span><\/span>Department of\u00a0<\/span><\/span>Orthopaedics<\/span><\/span>\u00a0in the UNC School of Medicine and the Lampe Joint Department of\u00a0<\/span><\/span>Biomedical Engineering based at UNC and NC State, we are interdisciplinary and collaborate across\u00a0<\/span><\/span>clinical and basic science departments. Please reach out if you are interested in musculoskeletal form and\u00a0<\/span><\/span>function, advanced imaging and simulation in bioengineering, or understanding clinical\u00a0<\/span><\/span>orthopaedics<\/span><\/span>\u00a0from\u00a0<\/span><\/span>an engineering perspective.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
