Anatomy of Injury (Session 2)

In this Summer Academy experience, we will discuss injuries from the initial moments until the return to pre-injury levels of activity. Students will begin to apply fundamental concepts of anatomy and physiology to inform interventions regarding real-life clinical situations. We will introduce students to basic anatomy and physiology of the human body through demonstrations utilizing human cadavers and lifelike models. Students also will be exposed to introductory interventions including hands-on clinical evaluation, therapeutic exercise and real-time analysis of human movement. This course is designed with the student interested in health-care professions in mind. If you are excited about a career in the areas of physical medicine, athletic training and physical therapy, and strength and conditioning, then this class will provide valuable insight and experiences relating to the field.
