Jasmine's Profile Picture

Research Interests

My research focuses on identifying the underlying risk factors contributing to patellar tendinopathy. Specifically, I am studying the influence of altered lower extremity kinematics on patellar tendon stress using finite element analysis. My work will contribute to the development of effective rehabilitation and prevention strategies for patellar tendinopathy.
