Dr. Wheatley will be headed to Switzerland in February to attend the 2020 CAMS-Knee OpenSim workshop. He will be presenting on the collaborative work with Dr. Seeley, focusing on his research from July 2019 while he was at the Stanford University Neuromuscular Biomechanics Lab ( https://nmbl.stanford.edu/ ). More information about the workshop/conference can be found here: https://opensim2020.ethz.ch/ .

Congratulations to Anurag, whose paper entitled “An experimental and computational investigation of the effects of volumetric boundary conditions on the compressive mechanics of passive skeletal muscle” has been accepted for publication in the Journal of the Mechanical Behavior of Biomedical Materials.

Here is a link to the paper.
