PhD Candidate
Duke University
Concetta Morino is a mechanical engineering PhD candidate at Duke University in the Injury Biomechanics Laboratory with an expected graduation of December 2023. She started her PhD in 2019 after graduating with a mechanical engineering degree from the Ohio State University. Her dissertation work is primarily focused on spinal mechanics and lumbar spine injury under fatigue loading. Beyond her dissertation work, she has studied head injury, sex differences in injury, injury due to blast, and behind armor blunt trauma. Morino intends to continue working in the field of injury biomechanics after defending her PhD.
