Allison H. Gruber

Allison H. Gruber studies the biomechanics of human movement, with a strong focus on running—how people run, what forces act on their legs and joints, and why running injuries occur. Much of the work uses wearable sensors (like accelerometers and consumer fitness devices) to measure movement outside the lab and to estimate internal forces on tissues such as the Achilles tendon. Related projects examine gait in older adults, footwear effects, and physical performance testing.

Publication activity has remained fairly steady over the past decade, generally producing roughly 5 to 12 works per year with no clear upward or downward trend.
