Hi everyone! We are just coming back from a much needed Spring Break, and are ready to finish out the semester!
Mohra: I recently gave an oral presentation about my research on trapezius and deltoid muscle activity in string musicians at Belle Biology Day with my fellow Locomotion Lab seniors. We also each presented an academic poster to faculty and students on the same weekend! Now that presentations are finished, I am finalizing my comprehensive research paper. In about a week, it will be ready to send to my committee and my senior comprehensive work will officially be done! I really enjoyed working with the Locomotion Lab members on this project throughout the past year and will cherish this valuable research experience! I am super excited that Jenna will be continuing research on sports-related muscle activity this upcoming year. For the rest of the semester, I will contemplate my next step. I am considering pursuing Movement Science research after graduation and eventually Physical Therapy school. I hope to become knowledgeable and qualified to prevent and rehabilitate performing arts based injuries. We'll see what life has in store for these next few months! Until next time! Jenna: I have been very busy the last couple weeks working on my proposal for my senior comprehensive research. I am excited to say that my research will focus on back muscle activation in bilateral and unilateral squats. I am looking at whether or not the unilateral squat has less back muscle activation than the bilateral squat, while still producing the same muscle activation in the leg. I am looking forward to working with Dr. Young and other members of the Locomotion Lab to tackle this new research idea! |
