Research Publications/Presentations
My research has been wide ranging working on research projects that have been funded by the National Institute of Health and Adidas International. Much of my research has centered around injury prevention of adolescent/college aged athletes and the use of dual energy x-ray absorptiometry(DXA) to better understand the relationship between body compositions and risk factors for athletes.
