DPT graduate students Kristin Morris, Lindsey Fetzer, Kelly Van Vlack, and Ryan Yelle; Ph.D. student Janet Kneiss; and Chris Neville, Ithaca alum and Ph.D. graduate of the University of Rochester and Ithaca College -- along with faculty advisers Jeff Houck and Deborah Nawoczenski -- presented three posters and one platform presentation at the recent meeting of the American Society of Biomechanics's national meeting in State College, Pennsylvania.
(Tiffany Hilton also served as a faculty adviser, but did not attend.)
The presentations reported on the laboratory findings related to patients with hip fractures, posterior tibial tendon dysfunction, and hallux rigidus deformities. The physical therapy graduate students were all research assistants in the Movement Analysis Laboratory and Center for Foot and Ankle Research during the 2008-9 academic year.
