We're stepping up to the plate to revolutionize walking 🤘 Texas Engineer @therealbigfey from @utmechengr and his team are using advanced motion capture tech to study how people walk so that they can understand muscle coordination when people walk. Tap below to learn more:
An advanced motion tracking tech is used by the staff of the Systems for Augmenting Human Mechanics Lab to discover how people walk. With that information, they could potentially revolutionize the prosthetics industry. trib.al/HIpn9Mf

@WTTWChicago recently profiled our pioneering Center for Bionic Medicine, highlighting the next generation of bionic limbs being developed at Shirley Ryan AbilityLab. Join us in marking the beginning of #limblossawarenessmonth, and watch the full story: bit.ly/3TYCCFp
For years, researchers say there was minimal advancement in the field. However, prosthetic limbs have come a long way. The next generation of bionic prosthetics is being developed at the multidisciplinary Shirley Ryan AbilityLab in downtown Chicago. to.wttw.com/3Pn7bly

A heartfelt thank you to all U.S. veterans for the sacrifices they've made! During his time in the U.S. Army, UT Health Austin orthopedic surgeon Anthony Johnson, MD, provided care that ranged from tactical care under fire to definitive rehabilitation and community reintegration.

We have an opportunity that is unique in Texas and only possible at a few places in the world — to build an academic medical center that is linked to a top research university and that is driven by innovations in technology, digital health, data science, artificial intelligence, robotics, material science and more. Learn about the @UTAustin Medical Center: utexas.edu/campus-life/medic… – at Austin, TX

"It’s surprisingly hard to find good simulation methods without actually working on a live patient,” says @MYvetteWB. The tool she’s developed with Ann Majewicz Fey not only makes practice possible but makes training easier for #MedEd professionals. #HealthIsMissionCritical
A trocar is an important tool in minimally invasive surgeries — but using one is hard to teach. @MYvetteMB, M.D., & @utmechengr's Ann Majewicz Fey, Ph.D., are creating simulation tools to change that & better train surgeons. #HealthIsMissionCritical bit.ly/3kkOpiq
