Fellows play an essential role in advancing the society\u2019s dual mission of fostering the exchange of ideas among biomechanists and facilitating the development of biomechanics as a basic and applied science, especially for students. The 2026 Class of Fellows will be recognized at the ASB Annual Business Meeting in conjunction with the World Congress of Biomechanics in Vancouver, Canada, July 11-15, 2026.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201cASB is the community where I first became confident as a researcher and is now the conference where I feel most at home. As an advisor, I\u2019ve watched this same process repeat itself with my own students.\u201d Beschorner said. \u201cBeing recognized as a Fellow, especially knowing the company I am joining, is surreal and a bit hard to put into words. I aim to live up to what this recognition represents and to continue finding ways to serve the ASB community.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>    &#8216;;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"&#13; &#13; &#13; ASB-Logo-Horizontal-with-date&#13; &#13; In 2011, ASB created the status of Fellow to recognize professional achievement and&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":172298,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[3892,12912,3893,56063,3895,73,75,74],"class_list":["post-172297","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-pittsburgh","tag-banner","tag-bioengineering","tag-dept-banner","tag-honors-awards","tag-pitt-swanson-school-of-engineering","tag-pittsburgh","tag-pittsburgh-headlines","tag-pittsburgh-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/172297","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=172297"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/172297\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/172298"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=172297"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=172297"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=172297"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
