Great opportunity to work with a collaborative and fun group.
Come work with us! We are looking for a biomechanist to join our lab. We are multidisciplinary group focused on improving outcomes after lower extremity injuries ranging from trauma to ACL reconstruction. Please DM me with any questions and apply here:

Couldn’t have picked a better stage for the final presentation from your dissertation @NickTThomas.
Very grateful to have had the opportunity to share our work at @UFMyology at the podium. I've found no better place to talk muscle and connect with other muscle scientists #muscleiscool @UKYCMB

Early insight into sex-specific muscle differences following ACL injury led by Dr. Meredith Owen with biopsy work from @NickTThomas @UKYCMB. Excited to build off these results in the near future.
After ACL injury, females experience greater changes in muscle fiber cross section area but comparable strength loss to males. Read more: @bnoehren @ChrisFryPhD

Great work taking place @UKYCMB and @ResearchKY improving the health of Kentuckians #StandUpForScience.
Everyone in my study has prediabetes—no one knew it B4. In KY, 1 in 4 adults has pre/diabetes and >2X higher healthcare costs. NIH funding rates were ~45% in the ‘70s to ~20% now. We can’t afford to underfund science #standupforscience #scienceforall #sciencenotsilence #diabetes.
