How we interact with tools and objects in our environment is one of the most fundamental, yet vital aspects of human movement. Despite the fact that activities of daily living come natural to most people, the human hand and forearm (our most basic means to interact with the external world) has unimaginable complexity. This makes it difficult to coordinate movement successfully and safely. Dr. Holmes¿ research program investigates how muscle recruitment and control strategies influence tissue loading and injury risk. The overall goal is to better understand work-related upper extremity disorders by identifying neuromechanical mechanisms of injury and pain.

我们如何与环境中的工具和物体互动是人类运动最基本但最重要的方面之一。尽管日常生活活动对大多数人来说是自然的，但人类的手和前臂（我们与外部世界互动的最基本手段）具有难以想象的复杂性。这使得很难成功和安全地协调运动。Holmes博士的研究项目调查了肌肉招募和控制策略如何影响组织负荷和损伤风险。总体目标是通过识别损伤和疼痛的神经力学机制来更好地了解与工作相关的上肢疾病。
