Engineering to enhance human mobility, play, and exploration
EDUCATIONUndergraduate, Mechanical Engineering, minor in Applied Mathematics– University of Washington
Tori is interested in researching human movement biomechanics to improve a person’s mobility, as well as developing orthoses and prostheses for young children. Tori is currently researching the effects of spinal stimulation on the gait of children with cerebral palsy.
EDUCATIONAvocet is interested in the application of spinal cord stimulation along with physical therapy as an intervention in children with cerebral palsy.
Undergraduate, Biomedical Engineering – Georgia Institute of Technology
Haydn is interested in mobility in impaired populations, spinal cord stimulation, and cerebral palsy (UW). Machine learning for clinical application, pathology dynamics, bioinformatics, and medical literature mining (GT).
EDUCATIONUndergraduate, Mechanical Engineering – University of Washington
Zahra is interested in helping improve people’s lives by improving their mobility. Currently, she is assisting in a qualitative study on early mobility aids for children with cerebral palsy.

Damon is interested in conducting theoretical, computational and experimental research in control for dynamic systems. He wants to incorporate mechanical, electrical and software components with machines to process information and make decisions autonomously. Currently, he is assisting in fabricating a dynamic walking robot to understand how altered control affects bipedal locomotion.
