Episode 53: Diversity in Perspectives and People in Biomechanics | Robin Queen

In this episode we talk with Professor Robin Queen, a professor at Virginia Tech in the department of Biomedical Engineering and Mechanics and the principal investigator of the Kevin P. Granata Biomechanics Lab. We discuss her diverse research projects including how she investigates the intersection of race and biomechanics and how she is developing better biomechanical metrics to better quantify and prevent anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reinjury. She also shares the importance of building diverse teams, vulnerability, and connecting with others to do impactful work.
