Stanford Biomechanics Lab

The Stanford Biomechanics Laboratory is a research facility focused on understanding how the human body moves and how to improve movement performance and rehabilitation. Using advanced tools like motion capture, force measurements, and computer modeling, researchers study musculoskeletal dynamics to develop better treatments for injuries, enhance athletic performance, and create innovative prosthetics and implants. Their work combines engineering, physiology, and medicine to solve real-world movement challenges, ultimately aiming to improve health, mobility, and quality of life.
