Ridhi is a third-year Ph.D. student in Silvia Blemker's M3 lab. She is a former GBMES Recruitment Co-Chair. I went to Bucknell University for my undergraduate studies, where I majored in Biomedical Engineering and minored in Dance. I really enjoy that my project sits at the intersection of biomechanics and physiology and incorporates experimental and computational modeling techniques. I also love the clinical motivation behind my research and our collaboration with the Pediatric Neuromuscular Clinic at UVa! Outside of research, I have been involved with the UVa Dance Department by participating in their Dance Concerts. Some of my more recent (quarantine inspired) hobbies include yoga, painting, and reading in my hammock. Find Ridhi on Twitter @myofibridhi
