BYU Applied Biomechanics Engineering Laboratory

We are kicking off a bold new experiment that we hope will provide opportunities for faculty, graduate students, undergraduate students, local professionals and interested clinicians an opportunity to learn, network, and discuss biomechanics-related research, problem solving, and medical device development. It is called “Biomechanics Grand Rounds”, and is modeled after the Grand Rounds mode of teaching and sharing case studies that is used in medical education, as well as in clinical practice by medical professionals.

The format is an interactive biomechanics-related case study presentation, where there is a combination of prepared information, augmented by guided Q&A with the audience. Each case study will last between 30-40 minutes total. We hope that you can join us!

More information can be found here:

Come join us as we discuss Case Studies in biomechanics-related research, problem solving, and medical device development. Thursdays at 7am in the Engineering Building.
