A world-class biomechanics lab is only as good as the people running it. Led by Dr. Arnel Aguinaldo, our team of faculty and students from the MS-KIN program is the heart and soul of this lab, through which teaching and learning biomechanics are cultivated in a stimulating and enriching environment. It is our hope that all athletes whom we test will benefit from our research and experience as they strive to optimize their health and performance.
