About Me
I am an associate professor of Biomechanics in the Physical Education and Physiotherapy faculties of Federal University of Pampa, Uruguaiana. I received my Ph.D. degree in Human Movement Sciences from Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul. During my Ph.D. program I was the recipient of an ISB International Award, which helped me to spent a time at Human Performance Laboratory in the University of Calgary.
My current topics of investigation are related to biomechanics and motor control of lower extremity. Part of my research is related to the GEPEC, a research group from Brazil, and are performed with people from different ages. I am the leader of a research group on Applied Neuromechanics in my University. Together this group, I am working to establish a research laboratory.
I live in Uruguaiana with my family. We are very close to Argentina, and a little bit far from Porto Alegre, the capital of our state. It is the extreme south of Brazil. In the summer we experience temperatures higher 38șC, and during the winter temperature of 0șC or event negative are possible.
Research Interests
Lower extremity biomechanics: pelvis and perineum, low back pain, postural control
Leg asymmetries: muscle activation and coordination
Neuromechanics of locomotion: pedaling, running
Collaborations
Dr Carlos Bolli Mota, Federal University of Santa Maria, Brazil
Dr Marco Vaz, Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil
Dr Irvin Faria, California State University Sacramento, USA
Dr Darren Stefanyshyn, University of Calgary, Canada
