ABOUT THE LAB
The Human Motion Control Lab is a diverse research enviornment under PI, Dr. Sara Wilson. Historically the lab has focused on the coordination and stability of the spine, especially in regards to low back pain and scoliosis. More recently, shoulder dystocia has been investigated both clinically and computationally. Additionally, there are several medical devices being designed in the lab in the fields of OB-GYN and Internal Medicine.
Bhargavi Krishnan working with "Baby Hands" to develop a system to better understand the forces applied during child birth.
