Biography

Clare Boothe Luce Assistant Professor of Mechanical Engineering teaches Science of Materials and Capstone Design. Prior to joining UDM she was an Assistant Professor at Oakland University where she led the Ergonomics and Human Performance Lab. She received a PhD in biomedical engineering at Marquette University before completing a postdoc studying Hand Rehabilitation at the Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago (now the Shirley Ryan AbilityLab). She also spent two years working at Lockheed Martin Corp in the naval electronics division.

Research Interests:

Research interests are centered around the assessment of human performance in healthy and disabled populations as it pertains to therapy, work and product design. Specifically, she studies hand and arm function with the goal of identifying techniques that will allow elderly and disabled individuals to remain independent at home and work. Topics of interest: Assistive Technology, Ergonomics, Biomechanics, Neuromechanics.

Teaching Experience:

UD-Mercy (2017-present), Capstone Design and Science of Materials

Oakland University (2012-2017), Ergonomics and Work Design, Human Factors Engineering, Occupational Biomechanics, Introduction to Industrial and Systems Engineering
