We are testing a new system for linking grants to scientists.
The funding information displayed below comes from the
NIH Research Portfolio Online Reporting Tools and the
NSF Award Database.
The grant data on this page is limited to grants awarded in the United States and is thus partial. It can nonetheless be used to understand how funding patterns influence mentorship networks and vice-versa, which has deep implications on how research is done.

Collaborative Research: Network-Based Interactive Laboratory Modules For the Study of Movement Biomechanics, and Coordination and Control @ University of Illinois At Urbana-Champaign
Biological Sciences (61) In science education, laboratory sessions are valuable for reinforcing concepts introduced in lectures. However, it has become increasingly difficult to acquire equipment, space, and personnel resources to manage laboratory classes in higher education. The objective of the project is to develop a set of interactive laboratory modules utilizing a previously developed Internet-based video digitizing system. The developed modules will allow students to quantify the motion of an object or the human body by acquiring coordinate data from video images. The kinematic parameters resulting from the processing of coordinate data can be used for the learning of basic mechanical concepts and the study of movement coordination and control. Specifically, laboratory modules will be developed for the learning of basic mechanical concepts (e.g., linear and angular kinematics, muscle mechanics) that are usually taught in undergraduate level biomechanics and physics courses. The modules for the learning of concepts in motor coordination and control (e.g., inter-limb coordination, postural control) utilize a multidisciplinary approach, integrating concepts from biology, psychology and engineering. The use of the Web provides students unlimited accessibility in terms of both time (when) and location (where) to complete the laboratories. The modules have applications for distance learning courses and for educational settings where resources for specialized undergraduate laboratories are limited or unavailable. The project provides a unique integration of information technology and education for laboratory environments and the laboratory modules developed will be made available to the public. Teachers/Professors can selectively incorporate some or all of the modules in their courses. This is a collaboartive effort with the University of Florida (DUE 0127338).
