Introduction

Dr. Cheng-Feng Lin got her BS in Physical Therapy and MS in Biomedical Engineering from NCKU, Taiwan, and Ph.D. in Human Movement Science from The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, US. Her specialties are lower extremity biomechanics, sports injury prevention, adaptive sports, and cancer rehabilitation. Her research primarily focuses on movement biomechanics in dancers and athletes, and musculoskeletal rehabilitation, which combines knowledge in rehabilitation, computer sciences, and bioengineering. 

Our lab works on the topics related to rehabilitation medicine, and applied biomechanics on the lower extremity and spine. Our lab also works closely with orthopedic surgeons on the projects of musculoskeletal biomechanics and rehabilitation, with oncologists on the projects of physical activity on cancer patietns.  


Research Topics
  • Imaging and cortical excitability in athletes with ankle instability
  • Muscle structure and its contribution to performance in athletes with hamstring strain
  • Physica activity/fitness level on QoL in people with physical disability
