James Onate, PhD, "Human Movement Biomechanics for Rehab Specialists, Part 3"
Mark your calendar for Wednesday, January 19th from 3:00 to 4:00pm EST and join James Onate, PhD, ATC, FNATA, for the final installment of his 3-part webinar series on Human Movement Biomechanics for Rehabilitation Specialists. Part 3 will focus on Newton's Third Law, the Law of Action- Reaction.
In this webinar, a review of Newton's third law will help ground rehabilitation specialists in an understanding of the basics of human biomechanics.
Following part 3, participants will be able to:
Define Newton's Law of Action-Reaction
Apply Newton's Law of Action-Reaction in a clinical setting

Dr. James Onate is an Associate Professor at The Ohio State University in the College of Medicine. He is the current Director of the Movement Optimization and Prevention for Exercise Sustainment (MOvES) research laboratory and is the Interim Director of the Division of Athletic Training. His main research focus is developing research paradigms that bridge the gap across research to clinical systems to allow for evidence-based outcomes for aiding individuals to sustain optimal health and performance throughout their careers and lives. The specific aims of his research are focused on exploring issues related to lower extremity injury, in particular anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury, pre-participation examinations and human performance optimization. His research also extends to combining motor learning, biomechanics, strength training, and rehabilitation paradigms to create systems of clinical discovery to optimize human health and performance. His research has been sponsored by organizations including the National Institutes of Health, Office of Naval Research, Department of Defense, United Special Operations Command and the National Athletic Trainers’ Association Research and Education Foundation. Dr. Onate is an Associate Editor for the Journal of Athletic Training and is a reviewer for several sports medicine, biomechanics, athletic training, and rehabilitation journals. He is currently the Chair of the National Athletic Trainers’ Association Research and Education Foundation committee for Athletic Training Research Agenda (ATRA). He is a fellow of the National Athletic Trainers’ Association and is a member of the Youth Development Committee for the American Baseball Coaches Association (ABCA) focused on High School aged ballplayer development.
