Jordan Cannon is an Assistant Professor at the University of Waterloo, specializing in Kinesiology and Health Sciences. His research focuses on understanding the relationships between muscle function and coordination, as well as the dynamics of the musculoskeletal system. Cannon's work aims to elucidate how individual muscle characteristics influence both normal and pathological high-performance musculoskeletal function. He is particularly interested in whole-body movement analysis, the neuromuscular and morphological contributions to joint tissue injury mechanisms, and strategies for optimizing movement performance along with injury prevention and rehabilitation. His current research areas include the functional role of individual muscles within coordinated muscle networks and the pathomechanics related to femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS). Cannon also supervises graduate students and engages in teaching various courses related to biomechanics, neuromuscular control, and musculoskeletal modeling.
Includes fields like Clinical, Cognitive, Developmental, and Industrial/Organizational Psychology.
