Todd Robbins performs passive ROM of the big toe. The Ithaca College Movement Analysis Laboratory is collaborating with the prosthetist and orthotist from Strong Prosthetics and Orthotics to provide clinically related research experience for prosthetic and orthotic residents. Residents will work on collaborative projects testing the benefits of current prosthetic and orthotic approaches to restoring limb function. The projects embrace a team atmosphere providing opportunities for residents to work with physical therapy students from Ithaca College and biomedical engineering students from the University of Rochester. The clinical focus of these projects provides excellent preparation for the development of future clinical expertise in gait and prosthetic and orthotic design.
Opportunities exist for students and therapists to participate in projects in the lab.
