Thanks @ISEKCongress! We’re seeing growing evidence of a hamstring neuromuscular profile that is unique from what we see in the quadriceps after #ACLR …less corticospinal inhibition! Kudos to @MoeinKoohestani for leading the way! @avaschwa7 @jrush34 @DaveShermanPT

Great work by @Alyssavolzatc and team for publishing her thesis showing that higher kinesiophobia associates with stiffer landings and medial knee loading after ACLR. Check out the free text 🔗 nam02.safelinks.protection.o… @jrush34 @DrBazettJones @AmandaMurrayPT @PTiSJournal

I got a little choked up re-reading this one. Without a doubt one of the hardest things I have ever wrote.🥹 Vulnerability in professional spaces is hard but if it educates, supports, or inspires even just one person, it was all worth it.✨ meridian.allenpress.com/jat/…

We are trying to examine the potential impact of state regulatory language on ATs ability to provide emergency care to patients. If you are currently employed as an AT *IN ANY SETTING* please take our survey! uconn.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/…

Hey academic twitter! I’m looking to do a career panel for a network of students of color in the kinesiology department here at MSU in late March/early-mid April. This will likely be via Zoom, unless you’re in the area we can make an on campus panel happen! (1/..)

Co-authors: @jrush34 (of @OMNIohio) and @Grant_Norte, @MattStockPhD, and @cdingersoll (of @UCF_IEPRS). I am very proud of this work, and can honestly say it was improved by the peer review process. Hopefully the 1st of many from our group on motor unit characteristics post ACLR

Excited to share that we will have an article coming out soon in @PeerJLife. We examined neural drive and motor unit characteristics in the quadriceps after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. Work done in the @UToledo_MAINLab and funded by @NATAFoundation. Stay tuned!

Awesome to see our work on AMI interventions translated into Japanese. Thank you, #KengoSugimoto! @Grant_Norte @jrush34 Original: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3488…
今回のAUは関節外傷・障害が原因で関節周囲の健康な筋肉が神経学的に抑制される現象(関節原性筋抑制)に関するシステマティックレビューの紹介です。前十字靭帯再建術後のリハビリテーションを担当した時、術後翌日にも関わらず選手の大腿四頭筋が萎縮していることが不思議でした。

Congrats @jrush34! It's been fun cheering you on from a distance these past 4 years. Excited to see what you accomplish at OU! @NMBHAL_Lab
Now that I’ve had some time to unwind from my defense, I am thrilled to say that I successfully defended my dissertation! None of this would have been possible without the support of my committee @AmandaMurrayPT @DrBazettJones @burlandjp @Dusty_Grooms and the @UToledo_MAINLab.

Now that I have completed this milestone, I am happy to formally announce that I will be starting a post-doc with @Dusty_Grooms and @JanetSimon51 at the end of the month! I cannot wait to join the @NMBHAL_Lab and to see what this next step holds for me.
