Sedentary Behavior and Heart Health

We now know there is a link between sedentary behavior (e.g., sitting) and heart disease. However, we do not yet fully understand if sedentary behavior performed in different settings and situations (e.g., sitting alone watching television vs sitting with friends at a bar) differentially impacts heart disease risk. This is what this study aims to find out.

Pediatric ACL Walking, Jumping, and Cutting

Many young athletes who tear their ACL have trouble getting back to sport or suffer a second ACL injury once they do. We aim to improve athletes' ability to get back to sport safely. We want to make the activities athletes perform in rehabilitation more closely match the demands of what they do once they return to their sport. We also aim to develop low-cost ways to measure how the knee is moving during those activities. *This study is a collaboration with the UNC Sports Medicine Institute*
