Biography

Ryan T. Schroeder is an Assistant Professor in the Yousef Haj-Ahmad Department of Engineering at Brock University. His research employs a diverse set of tools and methods to investigate the mechanics and energetics of human locomotion and biomechanical activities. For example, he uses dynamic optimization models to predict movement patterns based on empirical data obtained from experiments that uncover fundamental determinants of tasks such as walking and running. Insights from these studies are instrumental in driving the development of novel rehabilitation strategies and gait-assistive technologies, including exoskeletons aimed at improving mobility for both impaired and unimpaired populations.
