Meet Dr. Alena Grabowski! “I'm an Assistant Professor in the Department of Integrative Physiology and I direct the Applied Biomechanics Lab. In the photo, I am preparing an athlete with a below the knee amputation for some running tests in my lab. We measured his biomechanics (motion, forces, and muscle activity) while he ran on a range of uphill, level, and downhill slopes.” You can learn more about Dr. Grabowski’s research on prosthetics in CU Boulder today and the Coloradan, link in bio! .

Meet Dr. Marina Vance, and her Co-PI Dr. Delphine Farmer. Marina Vance is an assistant professor in Mechanical Engineering at @cuboulder and Delphine Farmer is an associate professor of Chemistry at @coloradostateuniversity. Together, they are leading #HOMEChem, a field campaign in Austin, TX that stands for House Observations of Microbial and Environmental Chemistry. They are directing a team of researchers from several different universities in studying the unique chemistry that takes place in indoor environments. “At HOMEChem, after the students leave for the night... The PIs come back and play in the house! Tonight, we are using a toaster to compare instruments. I never thought making toast could be so interesting!” 🍞🍞🍞 Thank you for sharing, Marina!
