Dr. Albert holds a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology from the University of Ottawa, a Master's degree from the University of Western Ontario, and a Ph.D. in Occupational Biomechanics from Queen's University. His primary research focus is on occupational biomechanics and ergonomics, particularly the prevention of musculoskeletal injuries in the workplace and promoting general low back health. He has led numerous collaborative research projects with researchers from Ontario and Atlantic Universities. Current projects include studying the physical demands placed on healthcare providers during patient handling activities, assessing the effects of neuromuscular fatigue and lifting technique modifications on low back pain populations, and biomechanical assessments related to post-operative spinal muscular recovery. Additionally, he investigates the physical demands of heavy materials handling in various working environments, including the automotive industry and aboard ship decks. His research also examines the physiological and biomechanical demands placed on pilots using Night Vision Goggles.
