We investigate the structure and function in healthy as well as injured or diseased states using optical and electromagnetic tracking, finite element analysis, imaging, experimental testing, and muscle modelling. With this research we hope to gain a fundamental understanding of the influence of mechanical loads in health, disease and extreme performance on the musculoskeletal system.
