Spotlight on Women in Biomechanics

We aim to make women in science more visible, to make science more accessible to the public, and to encourage the next generation of women scientists to pursue biomechanics. We release ‘Member Spotlights’ and ‘Paper of the Quarter’ tweet threads on Social Media, and share a newsletter to promote our members’ research to a broader audience.
