What is the Great Plains Biomechanics Conference?

The Great Plains Biomechanics Conference coincides with the Human Movement Variability conference and will have its 6th appearance since 2020. The goal of this conference is to provide a student-centered meeting where the growing field of biomechanics in topics such as vascular mechanics, robotics, bioprinting, and many others is explored through poster and podium sessions and a keynote speaker. The target demographic includes students, faculty, and clinicians from states such as Nebraska, Iowa, Kansas, South Dakota, North Dakota, Minnesota, Missouri, Colorado, and Oklahoma. This year it was held on May 19th!

What is the Human Movement Variability Conference?

The Human Movement Variability conference is an annual conference organized by the Center for Research in Human Movement Variability and the Department of Biomechanics since 2016. The goal of the conference is a student-centered meeting where the latest in human movement variability research is presented, discussed, and debated. This year it was held on May 20th!

Who attends the conference?

The conference averages around 100 attendees yearly and comprises students, faculty, clinicians, and industry partners.
