The foot and ankle are sites of frequent musculoskeletal injuries. An injury to these structures often results in higher risk of re-injury and instability, which could lead to secondary problems such as balance issues, decreased mobility, or bone fractures/concussions from associative falls. Dr. Asmussen¿s research program will quantify neuromuscular control of foot and ankle joint stability during different types of human locomotion (i.e., walking, running) and develop a innovative system to improve foot-ankle stability. This research will inform clinicians how to develop personalized treatment approaches to improve foot-ankle stability and thus, prevent injury, re-injury, falls, and/or improve mobility.

足部和踝关节是常见的肌肉骨骼损伤部位。这些结构的损伤通常会导致再次损伤和不稳定的风险更高，这可能导致继发性问题，如平衡问题、活动性降低或相关福尔斯摔倒导致的骨折/脑震荡。 阿斯穆森博士的研究计划将量化在不同类型的人类运动期间对足和踝关节稳定性的神经肌肉控制（即，步行，跑步），并开发一个创新的系统，以提高脚踝稳定性。这项研究将告知临床医生如何开发个性化的治疗方法，以提高足踝稳定性，从而防止损伤，再损伤，福尔斯，和/或提高流动性。
