Common tasks such as prolonged standing or sitting have been linked to low back pain, yet there is sparse research on the joint mechanical responses to these sedentary and seemingly innocuous exposures. Dr. Callaghans Canada Research Chair in Spine Biomechanics and Injury Prevention will examine how injuries initiate on a microscopic level and will apply this fundamental knowledge to develop methods to assess daily loading and set workplace exposure limits. This knowledge will improve standards to prevent low back injuries through involvement with Health & Safety Associations and the Centre of Research Expertise for the Prevention of Musculoskeletal Disorders.

常见的任务，如长时间站立或坐着，与腰痛有关，但对这些久坐和看似无害的暴露的关节机械反应的研究很少。Callaghans博士加拿大脊柱生物力学和损伤预防研究主席将研究损伤如何在微观层面上开始，并将应用这些基本知识来开发评估日常负荷和设定工作场所暴露限值的方法。这些知识将通过参与健康与安全协会和预防肌肉骨骼疾病研究专家中心来提高预防腰部受伤的标准。
