  4. Faculty Recruits

Through University matching and the funds provided by the COBRE award, the MOVCENTR is proud to grow the number of research faculty at UNO.

Expanding Faculty Members

Since Fall 2015, the MOVCENTR has added 12 new faculty members through COBRE funding and University matching.

Most recently, the MOVCENTR has added Dr. Aaron Likens, previously a Research Associate in the MOVCENTR. Dr. Likens started in January 2020. Dr. David Kingston, previously a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Saskatchewan joined the MOVCENTR in August 2020.

Expanding Research

Increasing the amount of research faculty members has provided the opportunity to expand our research expertise to 3D printed prosthetics, exoskeletons, bio-inspired robotics and cardiovascular biomechanics.
