NBD Celebrates the World of Biomechanics!
National Biomechanics Day is a world-wide celebration of Biomechanics in its many forms for high school students and teachers.
Becca Walker at Liverpool John Moores University was a recipient of an NBD 2023 Women in Biomechanics grant. She organized a fabulous NBD celebration as seen in this video. Click the buttons below if you would like some more information about NBD and how to get involved!
