Combining mathematics, biology, physics and engineering, Dr. Dickerson aims to prevent shoulder damage before it begins. By integrating newly-defined tissue tolerance data with high-fidelity simulations, Dr. Dickerson will create new solutions to avoid shoulder disorders. This includes identifying how consumer product manufacturing, user-centred product design, and workplace layouts affect shoulders. These findings will be applied to insights on modifiers of shoulder function, such as compensatory movements, muscular fatigue and aging. The research approaches fundamental causes of shoulder damage and motivates changes in interfaces, workplace design, and daily usage to ensure optimal shoulder function and improve quality of life for all Canadians.

迪克森博士将数学、生物学、物理学和工程学结合起来，旨在预防肩部损伤。通过将新定义的组织耐受性数据与高保真模拟相结合，迪克森博士将创建新的解决方案来避免肩部疾病。这包括确定消费品制造、以用户为中心的产品设计和工作场所布局如何影响肩膀。这些发现将应用于对肩部功能调节因素的见解，例如代偿性运动、肌肉疲劳和衰老。该研究探讨了肩部损伤的根本原因，并推动界面、工作场所设计和日常使用的改变，以确保最佳肩部功能并提高所有加拿大人的生活质量。
