Out now in @TheLancetRheum - our new arthritis projections for Australia @ArthritisAust @Monash_SPHPM @RachelleBuchbin @danielleberko ➡️ 3.11 million people living with OA by 2040 ➡️ almost $10 billion of health system expenditure for OA by 2040
NEW RESEARCH—A population-level forecasting study estimates that #arthritis burden in #Australia will increase by 31% from 2025 to 2040, with 5·39 million people affected by 2040 and an annual healthcare expenditure of AU$11·92 billion https://t.co/x3zAhOIsdJ

Our latest paper intersected archeology and biomechanics - a first look at striking biomechanics of some Australian Aboriginal weapons @Griffith_Health x @ARCHE_Griffith @pzcld @DavidJohnSaxby1 @BradleyCornish3
Just how Deadly are deadly Aboriginal Weapons? We identified where their striking power comes from with biomechanics! Read OA: https://t.co/TvOZd6OBXG With @LauraDiamond05 @ARCHE_Griffith @Griffith_SciEnv @Griffith_Uni

Looking forward to speaking @sportskongres in Jan about hip joint and muscle forces during exercise!
First 30 speakers confirmed for @sportskongres 23-25th of January 2025, in Copenhagen 🇩🇰 30+ more to be announced soon 🔝 Get the important dates in the calendar❤️ Registration and abstract submission from 25th of August 2024🔥 Usually sells out quick💨

Exciting to see so many @OARSInews attendees keen to discuss and develop initiatives to drive biomechanics research in OA! @Griffith_Uni #OARSI2024
Loved starting Friday with @OARSInews Human Biomechanics Discussion Group... although it was early in FL, joining online helped a bit with my #OARSI2024 FOMO! Great discussion led by @mhunt_ubc @Monica97026710 @LauraDiamond05 @richkjones - looking forward to next steps! 🏃♀️🧎🏌️🤸

Hip contact force was predicted with ~13% error. Importantly, the NN detected changes in hip contact force that occur in response to gait modification.

We used experimental electromyography and anatomical key points to train and validate a neural network to predict hip contact force.

Our latest paper in @OACJournal led by @BradleyCornish3 showed neural networks can predict changes in hip contact force during gait modification in people with OA. This is exciting bc it can facilitate novel out-of-lab interventions for OA management!
