    Ep 3. Investigating Exercise Science, Sports Injuries, and breaking into the Movement Science Field with Prof. Brent Edwards

    Join us on this episode of the BioTEC Pod where we sit down and chat with Prof. Edwards. Prof. Edwards is an associate professor at University of Calgary in the Faculty of Kinesiology and the principal investigator of the Human Performance Laboratory. His lab, focused on extremely interdisciplinary projects, spans topics such as bone fracture and fatigue from a cellular level all the way to a whole-body view. The projects undertaken by the Edwards Group integrate biomechanical experimentations with in silico analysis such as imaging and computational modeling to identify non-invasive methods to measure bone integrity. Listen to our episode to learn about projects at the Edwards Group, as well as how to break into exercise science and biomedical engineering.
