Interested in the biomechanics of cerebrovasculature? Come visit me at my @Neurotrauma poster at 08.13!
Congratulations to @CoriEspelien for winning the 2024 UVA Grad Thesis SLAM! Cori competed among 60 graduate students from UVA presenting their research. Great job, Cori!
Many thanks @IIHS_autosafety for inviting CAB students, staff, and faculty to see a live crash test! It was an exciting experience for all.
Thanks for the shoutout @presjimryan! We're thrilled with all the exciting work going on at the lab!

Vehicle collisions are a leading cause of trauma for pregnant individuals in the U.S. - Assoc. Prof. Jason Forman & Ph.D. student @CoriEspelien @uvacab together w/ Asst. Prof. Pavel Chernyavskiy @uvamedicine joined forces to try to remedy this. @UVAEngineering @uvahealthnews @UVA
Seat belt usage stagnated over time among pregnant female vehicle occupants, suggesting a need for renewed focus and intervention. @MedicineUVA and @uvacab ja.ma/3sPpabF
CAB is back at @IRCOBI! Check out our packed lineup for Cambridge. #ircobi2023
Today we were ecstatic to host a visit from ESPN’s injury analyst @Stephania_ESPN! We gave her a tour of the lab and talked the ins and outs of CAB’s turf research. @uvamae @JasonKerrigan9 #the06010
We had a great time in Gothenburg last week, attending the 8th International Advanced Course on Injury Biomechanics! Big thank yous to @safercentre, @AutolivInc, @chalmersuniv, @comillas, @uvamae, and everyone else who helped put it together.

How do we get information to design safe cars? By crashing a lot of cars! In a controlled, safe environment, that is, and one of those places is @uvacab where graduate students lead high-level biomechanics research. @UVAEngineers @MBPanzerLab #biomechanics

Congrats to Sayak Mukherjee for successfully defending his PhD dissertation titled "Development of a Human Muscle Control Framework based on Deep Reinforcement Learning". Well earned!
They really do grow up so fast 🥲
CAB is proud to announce that we just ran a sled test on SESA for the 8⃣0⃣0⃣th time! Congrats to @CoriEspelien and her team for hitting this milestone!

Coming at you live from the NCA TBI conference. Come say hi and learn about automotive head injury metrics at poster 84!
It was truly an honor to be able to show off our laboratory and have meaningful discussions with @NHTSAgov leadership about road safety and injury prevention research!
