Curriculum VitaeCAPS Biography:
My research relates to the CAPS signature theme of health and well-being, as well as the cross-cutting theme of specific populations. I am a biologist, biomechanist and evolutionary anthropologist with interests in movement, health, bone biology and cognition. I have experience with many methods and applications for movement analysis, balance and strength assessment, bone imaging, and integrated approaches to aging and biology. I am currently working on a collaborative project to objectively measure fall risk in groups of elderly subjects using wearable sensors and AI.
