Bradley C. Nindl, director of the Neuromuscular Research Laboratory and professor and vice chair for research in sports medicine and nutrition, School of Health and Rehabilitation Sciences, was inducted as a fellow in the National Academy of Kinesiology at its recent awards banquet in Minneapolis, Minn.
The National Academy of Kinesiology is an honorary organization composed of fellows who have made distinguished and sustained contributions to the field of kinesiology through
scholarship and professional service. The dual purpose of the National Academy of Kinesiology is to encourage and promote the study and educational applications of the art and science of human movement and physical activity and to honor, by election to fellow, those individuals who have moved the field forward as a direct result of their scholarly and professional contributions. Fellows in the National Academy of Kinesiology reflect a “who’s who” of eminent scholars in the field.
At Pitt, Nindl also has dual appointments as the senior military and scientific advisor for the University's Center for Military Medicine Research and at the McGowan Institute for Regenerative Medicine.
