Volleyball’s rise in popularity over the past 30 years has created a growing need to better understand the biomechanical causes for shoulder injuries, particularly in youth volleyball players.

The biomedical engineering program is inviting a candidate to speak to how their research lab uses motion capture to analyze the mechanics of hitting a volleyball with the goal of creating better best-practices guidelines for strength and conditioning and repetition counts.

Join us from 3 to 4 p.m. today (Thursday) in EHS 102 to hear about several ongoing experiments in the lab, including using impulse and momentum techniques to estimate the forces on the body during a hit and ways to compare variation in types of motions. The presentation will highlight connections between the undergraduate engineering curriculum and the research techniques.

Artists Andreas and Jennifer Salzman will be giving a lecture on their exhibition on Monday, Jan. 28, at 6 p.m. in the Chehalem Cultural Center ballroom. A reception will follow at 7 p.m. in the Hoover lobby.

The Salzmans have been married for 28 years. They have been practicing artists for the past 28 years as well. Although they work in very different mediums, their work often addresses similar narratives. Both bodies of work discuss matters of relationships and the way those relationships define their lives. All relationships are approached visually with similar connections. Andreas and Jennifer both find themselves working with dialogue about their children, as well as those of their aging parents and loss of loved ones. This exhibition, The Journey, explores these narratives through mixed media sculpture and both traditional and nontraditional photography.

Questions? Contact Jennifer Salzman at jsalzman@georgefox.edu.
