Dr. Lauren Welte is an Assistant Professor with the Departments of Mechanical and Biomedical Engineering at the University of Alberta. She completed her BASc and PhD at Queen’s University and then completed a 2-year NSERC-funded postdoctoral fellowship at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Her research aims to quantify how soft tissue loading in the foot and ankle affects locomotor function.
