The Neuromuscular Biomechanics Lab at Stanford University combines experimental and computational approaches to study movement. We investigate the form and function of
biomechanical systems ranging from molecular motors to persons with movement disorders. We seek fundamental understanding of the mechanisms involved in the
production of movement, and are motivated by opportunities to improve treatments for individuals with cerebral palsy, stroke, osteoarthritis, and Parkinson's disease.
Dedicated to conquering more then 40 neuromuscular diseases that affect a million Americans. Nonprofit health agency dedicated to curing muscular dystrophy, ALS and related diseases by funding worldwide research. Provides comprehensive health care and support services, advocacy and education
Data involving orthopaedic conditions and rehabilitation aspects of musculoskeletal and neuromuscular disorders will be collected and stored as part of the normal clinical care of patients seen in the University of Florida (UF) and Shands Orthopaedics and Sports Medicine Institute.
