We’re calling for a bold change, urging the Commonwealth Government to invest at least $100 million in an Arthritis and MSK Research Mission.

Out now in @TheLancetRheum - our new arthritis projections for Australia
@ArthritisAust @Monash_SPHPM @RachelleBuchbin @danielleberko
➡️ 3.11 million people living with OA by 2040
➡️ almost $10 billion of health system expenditure for OA by 2040
6 Dec 2024
NEW RESEARCH—A population-level forecasting study estimates that #arthritis burden in #Australia will increase by 31% from 2025 to 2040, with 5·39 million people affected by 2040 and an annual healthcare expenditure of AU$11·92 billion thelancet.com/journals/lanrh… @RachelleBuchbin

Our latest paper intersected archeology and biomechanics - a first look at striking biomechanics of some Australian Aboriginal weapons @Griffith_Health x @ARCHE_Griffith @pzcld @DavidJohnSaxby1 @BradleyCornish3
27 Oct 2024
Just how Deadly are deadly Aboriginal Weapons? We identified where their striking power comes from with biomechanics!

Hip contact forces can be predicted with a neural network using only synthesised key points and electromyography in people with hip #osteoarthritis 🦴

Loved starting Friday with @OARSInews Human Biomechanics Discussion Group... although it was early in FL, joining online helped a bit with my #OARSI2024 FOMO! Great discussion led by @mhunt_ubc @Monica97026710 @LauraDiamond05 @richkjones - looking forward to next steps! 🏃♀️🧎🏌️🤸

Hip contact force was predicted with ~13% error. Importantly, the NN detected changes in hip contact force that occur in response to gait modification.

Our latest paper in @OACJournal led by @BradleyCornish3 showed neural networks can predict changes in hip contact force during gait modification in people with OA. This is exciting bc it can facilitate novel out-of-lab interventions for OA management! oarsijournal.com/article/S10…

We used experimental electromyography and anatomical key points to train and validate a neural network to predict hip contact force.
