Automaticity of Motor Skill Following Running Gait Retraining

• Principal Investigator: Hsiang-Ling (Sharon) Teng, PT, PhD
• Collaborators: DPT, Will Wu, PhD
• The purpose of this study is to evaluate the short-term effects of a gait retraining program with real-time visual feedback on motor skill retention and automaticity in runners with and without patellofemoral pain.

Effects of a Gait Retraining Program on Pain, Function and Running Biomechanics in Runners with Patellofemoral Pain

• Principal Investigator: Hsiang-Ling (Sharon) Teng, PT, PhD
• Collaborators: Jennifer Bagwell, PT, PhD, DPT, Will Wu, PhD
• The purpose of this study is to examine the short- and medium-term effects of a forward trunk lean retraining program with real-time visual feedback on trunk kinematics, patellofemoral joint stress, pain and function in runners with patellofemoral pain.

Hip, Trunk, and Pelvic Floor Muscle Function During and After Pregnancy: Implications for Low Back and Pelvic Girdle Pain and Urinary Incontinence

• Principal Investigator: Jennifer Bagwell, PT, PhD, DPT
• Collaborators: Julie Peterson, PT, DPT, WCS, BCB-PMD, Hsiang-Ling (Sharon) Teng, PT, PhD
• The purpose of this study is to identify trunk, hip, and pelvic floor muscle function (quantified via lower extremity biomechanics, muscle activation, and muscle morphology) with respect to low back/pelvic girdle pain and urinary incontinence with a goal of improving interventions and quality of life for pregnant and postpartum females.

The Relationship Between Lower Back Pain, Pelvic Girdle Pain, and Urinary Incontinence and the Strength of Hip and Trunk Muscles in Postpartum Females

• Principal Investigator: Jennifer Bagwell, PT, PhD, DPT
• Collaborators: Hsiang-Ling (Sharon) Teng, PT, PhD, Brooke Winder, PT, DPT, OCS
• The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between low back pain, pelvic girdle pain, urinary incontinence and hip strength and trunk endurance with a goal of informing best interventions for postpartum females.

Research is conducted in the Movement Science Laboratory located in KIN 64. The space measures 90 x 50 ft (27.4 x 15.2 m) with ceiling height in excess of 20 ft (6 m).
