The CSB-SCB podcast is owned and operated by the Canadian Society for Biomechanics. Student Representatives, Jackie Zehr and Franziska Onasch, interview experts (academics, industry professionals, practitioners) about the science and practice of biomechanics. Interdisciplinary topics are discussed with a particular focus on research, technology, evidence-based practice, and knowledge translation in the field of biomechanics. New episodes are released on the first Monday of each month. For questions and inquiries, email students@csb-scb.com.

13: Shoulder Biomechanics — Dr. Clark Dickerson
Dr. Clark Dickerson, Professor at the University of Waterloo, explains the majesty and complexity of the shoulder complex and its stability. He also discusses his research on fatigue-related rotator cuff injuries, comparative shoulder biomechanics, and digital human modelling for the purpose of human shoulder evaluation in occupational contexts.

12: MRI in Biomechanics Research — Dr. Emily McWalter
Dr. Emily McWalter, Assistant Professor at the University of Saskatchewan, discusses her research on the use of MRI for the study of knee joint and soft tissue function in disease states. She also explains the development of novel quantitative MRI techniques to study the structure and function of tendons and ligaments in the knee.

11: Trauma Biomechanics & Safety Systems — Dr. Cheryl Quenneville
Dr. Cheryl Quenneville, Associate Professor at McMaster University, discusses her research on bone fracture related to high energy impact exposures and the development of injury thresholds. She further discusses ongoing research on safety systems intended to prevent traumatic injury and orthopaedic fixation devices for comminuted fracture.
