Joshua M. Leonardis

Joshua M. Leonardis studies shoulder biomechanics and musculoskeletal health in populations with unique physical demands, including manual wheelchair users with pediatric-onset spinal cord injury, breast cancer survivors after mastectomy and reconstruction, and people with joint hypermobility disorders. His work combines motion capture, imaging (MRI, ultrasound), and muscle activity recordings to understand how injury, surgery, sex, and age affect joint movement, muscle function, and long-term shoulder health. This research aims to inform rehabilitation strategies and clinical decision-making for these patient groups.

Publication output has been relatively steady over the past decade, with a peak around 2021 and a modest decline in the most recent two years.
