Risk Factors and Injury Prevention in the Throwing Athlete
: Arm injuries are the most common throwing injury, with growing concern as the most severe injuries, such as UCL reconstruction, continue to rise. Furthermore, throwing injuries are frequently recurrent, suggesting once injured, players are at increased

Towards Unconstrained Collision Injury Protection Data Sets: Initial Surrogate Experiments for the Human Hand [PDF]
Safety for physical human-robot interaction (pHRI) is a major concern for all application domains. While current standardization for industrial robot applications provide safety constraints that address the onset of pain in blunt impacts, these impact thresholds are difficult to use on edged or pointed impactors.

Robotically adjustable kinematics in a wrist-driven orthosis eases grasping across tasks [PDF]
Without finger function, people with C5-7 spinal cord injury (SCI) regularly utilize wrist extension to passively close the fingers and thumb together for grasping. Wearable assistive grasping devices often focus on this familiar wrist-driven technique to provide additional support and amplify grasp force.

Crash Severity Analysis of Child Bicyclists using Arm-Net and MambaNet [PDF]
Child bicyclists (14 years and younger) are among the most vulnerable road users, often experiencing severe injuries or fatalities in crashes. This study analyzed 2,394 child bicyclist crashes in Texas from 2017 to 2022 using two deep tabular learning models (ARM-Net and MambaNet).

Efficacy of Temporal Interference Electrical Stimulation for Spinal Cord Injury Rehabilitation: A Case Series [PDF]
Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a debilitating condition that often results in significant motor and sensory deficits, impacting the quality of life. Current rehabilitation methods, including physical therapy and electrical stimulation, offer variable outcomes and often require invasive procedures.

New Universal Theory of Injury Prediction and Prevention [PDF]
The prediction and prevention of traumatic brain injury, spinal injury and general musculo-skeletal injury is a very important aspect of preventive medical science. Recently, in a series of papers, I have proposed a new coupled loading-rate hypothesis as a unique cause of all above injuries.
