Introducing Uncertainty Analysis in Elbow Biomechanics: A Work in Progress at Two Educational Levels

Jessica He is a graduate from Cesar Chavez High School in Laveen, AZ. Upon receiving the Gates Millennium Scholarship, she is now a junior at the University of Rochester, pursuing a degree in Biomedical Engineering with a concentration in Biomechanics and a minor in Clinical Psychology. As a Xerox Fellow, she developed a teaching module on uncertainty analysis in elbow biomechanics that can be implemented at two different educational levels. With this research, she aspires to have this teaching module implemented in the BME curriculum at the University of Rochester and disseminated broadly for other instructors interested in introducing uncertainty analysis using an elbow biomechanics model.
