Biomechanics is the study of the mechanical principles that govern how living organisms move, grow, and interact with their environment. Combining biology, physics, and engineering, biomechanics explores everything from the motion of muscles and bones in humans and animals to the structural strength of plants and cellular mechanics. Researchers in this field develop insights that inform medical advances such as prosthetics, injury prevention, rehabilitation therapies, and even robotics and wearable technologies. As new imaging and modeling techniques emerge, biomechanics continues to unlock deeper understanding of how biological systems achieve efficiency, resilience, and adaptability.
