Alexandra Stibler, BS

PhD Candidate

Ali graduated with her B.S. in Biomedical Engineering from The College of New Jersey and is now pursuing her Ph.D in Biomedical Engineering at Virginia Tech. Prior research experience was in bone biomechanics, with an emphasis on mechanical and material property changes with exposure to space radiation. Her current research interests lie in understanding injury mechanisms and prevention, mainly in athletic and adolescent populations, with a focus on the foot and ankle. Her favorite activity is swimming, with her favorite stroke being breaststroke. Ali is an avid reader and enjoys movie nights, creative writing and spending time with friends.
