To acknowledge the spirit and enthusiasm of ESM 2020 we would like to highlight some of our most valued presenters and will therefore be offering an INTERVIEW SERIES EVENT entitled:
“Crosstalk with novel: Discussions on the future of research and navigating the current restraints imparted by social distancing in your research, patient, and/or student interactions.”
Kelly Jeans, MS
Assistant Director, Movement Science Laboratory Dallas at Texas Scottish Rite Hospital, Dallas, TX, USA
Video release Aug 24, 2020
Kelly Jeans has been with Texas Scottish Rite Hospital for over 20 years working within the Movement Science Laboratory using the gait lab technology to research disorders and conditions that impact pediatric movement.
Her clinical research interests include clubfoot, amputee gait, cerebral palsy, scoliosis, and activity measures in children.
She has been involved in a longitudinal research study on children with clubfoot for most of her 20-year tenure.
Since 2019, Kelly has been a board member of the Association of Children’s Prosthetic-Orthotic Clinics and was nominated for the best paper at the American Academy for Cerebral Palsy and Development Medicine Conference, also in 2019.
Dr. Sicco Bus, PhD.
Academic Medical Center, Amsterdam, the Netherlands
Video release Aug 17, 2020
Dr. Sicco Bus is a human movement scientist and works as an Associate Professor, Principle Investigator, and as Head of the Human Performance Laboratory at Academic Medical Center (AMC), Department of Rehabilitation, in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. He also works as Senior Researcher at the Hospital Group Twente in Almelo (secondment).
In his current work at the AMC in Amsterdam, Sicco divides his time with leading the Human Performance Laboratory and initiating, coordinating, and supervising research, mostly on lower-extremity biomechanics and injury prevention in diabetes and neuromuscular populations.
Sicco is chair of the study group of Neurovascular Complications of Diabetes in the Netherlands, and he is member of the board of the Amsterdam Movement Sciences Research Institute.
Kevin R. Ford, PhD, FACSM
Is the Interim Dean of the Congdon School of Health Sciences and Professor in the Department of Physical Therapy at High Point University USA.
Video release Aug 10, 2020
Dr. Ford is an accomplished researcher in sports medicine and biomechanics.
His research involves innovative studies, which answer the question of why devastating injuries occur and to determine how they can be prevented.
He analyzes the biomechanics of complex movement patterns and sport skills that relate to prevention of injury or enhanced performance in a variety of populations from healthy athletes to patients suffering from traumatic injuries.
Professor Julie Steele
Director of the Biomechanics Research Laboratory at University of Wollongong, Australia
Aug 3, 2020
Julie is the Director of the Biomechanics Research Laboratory at University of Wollongong, Australia.
For the past 37+ years, her research has focused on developing innovative strategies, based on applied biomechanics, to decrease injury potential and optimize quality of life for individuals across the age spectrum.
She was recently appointed a Member (AM) of the Order of Australia (General Division), for significant service to science in the field of biomechanics, to higher education, and to professional associations.
At novel, our priority is to enable the highest quality in measurement and we strongly believe in art in science.
