Scientist(s):
Blair Irvine, PhD
Developed in conjunction with the Canadian Back Institute, this multimedia educational program addresses the common worksite problem of back pain and how to avoid it. Using 3-D animation, the program demonstrates the "engineering" of the spine and provides advice and exercises to reduce the frequency of back injuries or relapses. To learn more about the CD-ROM developed from this research, see Back Pain: Relief and Prevention.
