CAHS Welcomes Dr. Ryan Wedge!

Welcome Dr. Wedge!

Dr. Ryan Wedge completed his BS and Masters of Physical Therapy degrees at Quinnipiac University, and his PhD from the University of Massachusetts Amherst.

Dr. Wedge is interested on the impact of injury (lower limb amputation, stroke, and total joint arthroplasty) on an individual’s walking abilities. His research focuses on how energy expenditure, stability, movement coordination and joint loading affect the adaptations seen after an injury. His overall goal is to improve rehabilitation and influence device design so there are better and more efficient outcomes.
