BREAKING: A federal judge reversed National Institutes of Health's terminations of hundreds of critical research grants that were canceled because of their alleged connection to disfavored topics, including diversity, equity, inclusion, and gender identity.

This is a major win for public health.

Last publication from my dissertation out now (www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....)

We increased foot arch spring stiffness in a simple, 2D computational model and examined rearfoot and non-rearfoot strike running. Increasing stiffness reduced arch energy storage/return in both, BUT... (1/2)

Presented my PhD work at RMASB this weekend! 🧠👟 Looked at how carbon fiber insole stiffness affects walking in older adults. Stiffer isn’t always better — comfort matters! Grateful for the feedback, support, & biomechanics fam. 🙌 #RMASB #Biomechanics #PhDLife
