Research summary
AI-generated

James A. Oñate's research centers on sports medicine and athletic training, with a focus on musculoskeletal injuries (especially ACL and knee injuries), concussion and brain-related outcomes, and movement/motion analysis. Recent work spans brain imaging after ACL surgery, head impact monitoring in youth football using instrumented mouthguards, concussion management in specialized populations like law enforcement officers, and technology for movement assessment such as markerless motion capture. This research area would suit students interested in clinical and biomechanical approaches to injury prevention, rehabilitation, and brain health in athletes and occupational groups.
