- Biomechanics
- Prevention and rehabilitation of musculoskeletal injury and disease in sports, orthopedics, oncology and amputation
- Diversity and inclusion
Research Interests
Dr. Chaudhari’s research focuses on the basic question: Can we better understand how movement-related injuries and diseases happen by studying the human body as a mechanical system? Dr. Chaudhari is interested in the role of core stability in the prevention and treatment of injuries across the entire body, the mechanisms behind overuse running and throwing injuries and the effects of chemotherapy, osteoarthritis, total knee arthroplasty and lower extremity amputation on gait and balance.
