Who will be attending WCB in Vancouver? Asking for a friend.

Reading a classic.

Januarys were calmer in the past…

Curiously, petroleum being “rescued” from ships “carrying narcotics” and a civil war leading to a sharp increase in oil prices - all by coincidence. Spurious correlation?

How many million liters of petroleum were “rescued” across the ocean in the past months? Who is going to sell them?

Is it just me, or do others also find Slack a bit confusing?

Despite our known problems and difficulties, I am glad to live in Brazil.

2025 was, by far, the most challenging year of my life so far. Hopefully, some of the challenges will not happen again 😅, while others will have a lifelong positive impact. I would like to wish everyone a wonderful New Year. Let’s work together to make the world a better place for all.

Do you know someone who has implemented joint moments calcutions using the IOR foot kinematics model?

Definitely happy being promoted to the full professor position at my university and celebrating with my family and my students. It has been a long way until here, fulfilled by amazing people around me and opportunities that shaped my career so far. Thank you. Looking forward for the next chapter!

Here’s the map of National Biomechanics Day 2025 events registered with The Biomechanics Initiative! 🌍 What a global celebration of movement and science. Did you know that 2026 NBD is celebring its 10th anniversary? Can we make it even bigger in 2026?

Lots of love and genuine care — that’s what I found waiting for me when I returned to the lab today after almost three weeks on leave. As Walter Herzog always says, it’s not about papers, it’s about people. Welcome back prof. Felipe. Thank you 🙏

In case you’re around Melbourne at the end of this month… I will be :)

You know why life seems to pass so fast? It’s because we expect AI to give us more time… only to use it to work even more. And while we’re still in 2025, things we expected for 2029, 2030, even 2023 are already being planned — because nobody slows down, and nobody wants to fall behind. Reflections…

Gilberto Gil performing live in one of the concerts from his final tour. Almost 3 hours of pure Brazilian culture.

Cold morning today, but the lab was warmed by the presence of local high school students coming to visit our campus to learn about higher education.

Genuine question: How long does it take to register a patent when the process is handled together with your university’s technology office? We’ve been battling bureaucracy for almost 10 months now — and it seems far from an end.

How is this possible? He was just a little boy yesterday, and today he already has his driver’s license!

After 600 consecutive days, I’m losing my Duolingo streak. It was fun, but I’m tired.

Wow… different life challenges coming at once… but no worries — we’ll face them one by one.

Hey. Don’t miss this!

On my way home after the XXX ISB Congress. It was wonderful. A big thank you to everyone who attended the event. I hope to see you, and many more, soon in other events, and especially in ISB 2027 in Sydney in two years! Join us! ISB is our worldwide society. Visit: www.isbweb.org

Message for this week and the years ahead.

Stopover in Paris before heading to Stockholm. Tour de France? Tempting. But no doubts — it’s ISB Congress time. See you there! 🇫🇷✈️🇸🇪 #ISB2025

Will you be at ISB or ASB in the coming weeks? Definitely come talk to me or someone from our group about a new Postdoc Position we are looking to fill asap in foot neuromechanics, aging, and gait. I'll post the official call for applications soon. Join us at UNC Chapel Hill! Reposts encouraged.

Let’s make NBD 2026 the biggest NBD ever! Let’s showcase biomechanics for students all over the world!

Today a colleague told me he’s traveling by bike to attend the ISB Congress in just a few days. Now I want to go by bike too! But… it’s a bit too far for a ride this time. Maybe in the future?

If you’re a biomechanist planning to submit a paper these days, keep in mind that many reviewers will be busy attending the XXX Congress of the International Society of Biomechanics! The time has come! Just a few days until our congress in Stockholm! Looking forward to seeing everyone there!

Are you presenting at ASB (@amsocbiomech.bsky.social) or ISB this summer? Let us know!😁 bit.ly/bba-present25

J Biomech has been growing here on Bluesky — thank you to all 2,000 of our followers! We hope our posts about new papers are engaging and spark new ideas for you.

I have agreed to chair Models and Motor Control at ISB (tuesday morning). I'm looking for a co-chair who is student/postdoc in this area. If you have a mentee or person to suggest please let me know!

There is still a day and a half to go at the XXXIX Annual Congress of the Brazilian Federation of Experimental Biology Societies, but with my last talk now delivered... time to relax, enjoy the conference, and reconnect with old friends. There is a lot going on these days...

Today at the XXXIX Annual Congress of the Brazilian Federation of Experimental Biology Societies to present on neuromuscular electrical activity.
