Organisation
Human Movement Biomechanics Research Group
Division
The central research area of the research group ‘human movement biomechanics’ is to investigate the mechanics of musculoskeletal function during gross motor functions (varying from activities of daily living, vocational activities to sports activities) and how the musculoskeletal function is reorganized and adapts to cope with these functions.
