The University of Virginia's Center for Applied Biomechanics is the largest university-based injury biomechanics laboratory in the world, specializing in impact biomechanics for injury prevention. Established in 1989 by NHTSA, the center conducts cutting-edge research using state-of-the-art equipment to analyze how the human body responds to injury.
With a focus on auto safety, military applications, sports biomechanics, and medical research, the Center for Applied Biomechanics at UVA is at the forefront of advancing knowledge in biomechanics and injury prevention. Their work aims to improve safety for automobile occupants, increase soldier survivability, and enhance post-event trauma care to minimize disability and impairment.
