Why do babies kick? The Nowlan Lab is exploring this question from the point of view of how movement in the womb affects formation and development of the bones and joints. Mechanical forces are important for normal function of adult bones and joints, and we are investigating if mechanical forces are also important for prenatal skeletal development.

Fetal Movement Matters

When a baby doesn't move in the womb the right way, or at the right time, that can have implications for multiple aspects of their health. The Developmental Biomechanics Group is exploring how fetal movements affects formation and development of the bones and joints, and how fetal movements are indicative of the health and development of the unborn baby.

We are in the Department of Bioengineering at Imperial College London. Our research is part of the Biomechanics theme.
