Background

About Phillip Gribble

I am a Professor and the Chair of the Department of Athletic Training and Clinical Nutrition. My research interests have focused on understanding the neuromuscular consequences of ankle and knee injuries and developing intervention strategies to alleviate the health care burden from these injuries. I have an international reputation as an expert in the area of ankle instability and served previously as the Co-Director of the International Ankle Consortium (IAC). I have expertise in neuromuscular control laboratory measures, including postural control, motion analysis, strength, and corticospinal excitability; as well as clinical research outcomes using functional testing to improve injury prediction and prevention. I am currently funded by the Department of Defense (DoD), and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to study consequences and management musculoskeletal injuries in tactical populations such as military and fire fighters.
