- Episode 52: Holla Back at Brain Biomechanics | Maria HollandIn this episode we talk with Maria Holland, Assistant Professor of aerospace and mechanical engineering at the University of Notre Dame. We talked about the implications of different properties of the brain and how we can apply biomechanics to study brain growth such as changes in folding and cortical thickness.Thank you to our sponsors!SageMotion: sagemotion.comSupport BOOM on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/biomechanicsonourmindsConnect with Maria!Lab website: https://commandlab.nd.edu/Twitter: @mholla_backBiomechanics in the wild: https://sites.nd.edu/biomechanics-in-the-wild/Connect with BOOM!Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook: @biomechanicsonourmindsLinkedIn: linkedin.com/company/biomechanicsoom/YouTube: Biomechanics On Our MindsWebsite and shop: biomechanicsonourminds.comResourcesMore info about the NSF Career award: https://beta.nsf.gov/funding/opportunities/faculty-early-career-development-program-careerPapers on cortical thickness:https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/hbm.25776https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10237-020-01400-whttps://link.springer.com/article/10.1140/epjst/e2020-000001-658 min
- Episode 51: Weaving Together Space, Aging, and Vehicle Safety Biomechanics | Ashley WeaverWe had so much fun talking to Professor Ashley Weaver, Associate Professor of Biomedical Engineering at the Wake Forest School of Medicine about both her impactful research and educational projects. Her research spans three themes: 1) injury/crash biomechanics to improve car safety design elements 2) osteoporosis in aging and 3) the effects of space and microgravity on astronaut musculoskeletal systems. She uses a number of imaging modalities and modeling techniques to explore these themes and improve human biomechanics and health. She also directs university graduate and undergraduate programs to train the next generation of leaders and shares some tips on mentorship and building community.Connect with Ashely Weaver!Personal webpage: https://school.wakehealth.edu/Faculty/W/Ashley-Anne-WeaverTwitter: @AshleyAWeaverLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ashley-weaver-3808548/Wake Forest BME department Twitter: @WakeBMEThank you to our sponsors!SageMotion: sagemotion.comSupport BOOM on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/biomechanicsonourmindsConnect with BOOM!Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook: @biomechanicsonourmindsLinkedIn: linkedin.com/company/biomechanicsoom/YouTube: Biomechanics On Our MindsWebsite and shop: biomechanicsonourminds.comResourcesBit of BOOM paper: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0021929021006576?casa_token=YUAIfXRWLb8AAAAA:G3jlIzklFlJQVa73ALl9OdCGjyZ4lw-_AiPUmjrZ8xME-_rg0xl250KK8sKD3QYWUrffPyUPaper referenced in question 5: https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10439-021-02745-858 min

- Episode 49: On-Field Baseball Biomechanics - Don't Be Deceived | Mike SonneOur guest today is Dr. Mike Sonne, chief scientist at Three Motion AI where they use biomechanics to elevate athlete training and performance in baseball! We learn about how to translate biomechanical evaluations into useable applications like quantifying changes in performance. While you don’t need to be a baseball expert to enjoy this epsiode, we think you’ll be excited to see how biomechanics is informing professional baseball players and get inspired to make a big impact in your own work.Connect with Mike Sonne!Twitter: @DrMikeSonneProPlayAI twitter: @proplayaiProPlayAI: proplayai.comConnect with BOOM!Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook: @biomechanicsonourmindsLinkedIn: linkedin.com/company/biomechanicsoom/YouTube: Biomechanics On Our MindsWebsite and shop: biomechanicsonourminds.com1 hr 7 min
- Episode 48: Bioengineering Your Own Path | Bob GuldbergOn this episode, we talk with Dr. Bob Guldberg, who is the Vice President and the Executive Director of the Knight Campus for Accelerating Scientific Impact at the University of Oregon. We loved learning about being a successful academic entrepreneur and his work in musculoskeletal tissue regeneration. Bob also shares the importance of embracing interdisciplinarity and creating diverse and inclusive communities (even with our four-legged friends).Connect with Bob Guldberg!Lab website: https://www.guldberglab.orgKnight Campus Twitter: @UOKnightCampusWu Tsai Human Performance Alliance Twitter: @WuTsaiAllianceConnect with BOOM!Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook: @biomechanicsonourmindsLinkedIn: linkedin.com/company/biomechanicsoom/YouTube: Biomechanics On Our MindsWebsite and shop: biomechanicsonourminds.comResourceshttps://ieeexplore.ieee.org/abstract/document/962798754 min

- Bonus Episode: Markerless Motion Capture | Scott SelbieIn this episode, we dive into markerless motion capture with Dr. Scott Selbie, the Chief Executive Officers of Theia Markerless Inc, Director of Research at C-Motion Inc, an adjunct Professor in Mechanical Engineering at Queen's University and in the department of Kinesiology at the University of Massachusetts.We talk about the exciting future of markerless motion capture, the barriers of markerless becoming the new “gold standard” to motion capture, and how Theia aims to overcome these challenges. We also discuss start-ups, industry, and (one of our favorite topics) failure!Additional clarification: To add to our discussion about discussing feature identification, we wanted to add the note that the salient points for the neural network are points that are not necessarily equivalent to the locations that markers are placed. With a physical marker, palpation identifies bony landmarks. For salient features it is less important that the marker represent a bony prominence than it is a location that can be reliably identified on a video image. It turns out that the reliable locations are not coincident with a bony prominence.Theia Markerless is a young start-up that is revolutionizing motion capture in biomechanics by harnessing machine vision and artificial intelligence to provide incredibly accurate markerless motion capture software that is simple, powerful, and versatile.
