 Dr. Changwon Son, an assistant professor in the Department of Industrial, Manufacturing, and Systems Engineering at the Edward E. Whitacre Jr. College of Engineering at Texas Tech University, has received a $49,989 grant from the National Safety Council to address musculoskeletal disorders linked to overhead work in the manufacturing industry.
The funding comes from the council’s Musculoskeletal Disorders Research to Solutions (R2S) program. The project will focus on developing and testing a 3D-printed head and neck support device designed for workers performing prolonged overhead tasks, known as a known risk factor for musculoskeletal injuries.
