Join us for the Foot and Ankle Research Interest Group on Sunday night at #ORS2026! Our agenda includes poster teasers, guest nation highlights, standards updates, and a keynote by Dr. Bopha Chrea. Refreshments will be provided. Thank you to our sponsor, Enovis!
Our next webinar "Balance is Vital: Quantitative Balance Testing To Support Clinical Decision Making Around Fall Risk" will be given by Ajit Chaudhari on Sept 24 at 2 pm ET. This webinar is free to anyone, and recording is available to members.

This project is the result of a longstanding collaboration between the Orthopaedic & Rehabilitation Engineering Center at Marquette and
@shrinershosp
and we're so excited for the opportunities this project gives us to advance the field of pediatric foot & ankle analysis!
I'm so happy to be in Stockholm for #isb2025. If you're here, be sure to attend Amy Lenz's talk in the foot & ankle biomechanics session in room C1 at 9:30 tomorrow!
Our undergraduate research assistants with the Orthopaedic & Rehabilitation Engineering Center did a great job showcasing this intital pediatric weightbearing CT work in collaboration with Shriners Children's Chicago.
This year's GCMAS annual meeting kicked off with a two day pre-course on "Basic Gait Analysis and Interpretation". This course was designed to provide anyone working in a clinical lab necessary clinical & technical information to become competent in data analysis and interpretation.
Our group's current Automatic Anatomical Foot and Ankle Coordinate Toolbox (AAFACT) is available on github. We are really looking forward to hearing feedback from others in this community!

I'm thrilled to share that myself and amazing collaborators (Amy Lenz, Kevin Dibbern, Amanda Whitaker, and Jessica Fritz) received funding from NICHD for our R01 "Advancing Functional Assessment of Pediatric Flatfoot Using Weightbearing CT".

Stockholm has been amazing for #isb2025. I had the privilege of presenting our foot and ankle standization work in a discussion on kinematic recommendations across joints. It has been a great opportunity to connect with collaborators from around the world on this effort.
The leadership of GCMAS was officially turned over to the next society president, Wendy Pierce, at the world's largest gavel.
