Call for 2026 FAIR Center Pilot Project Proposals Application Deadline: March 27, 2026 The FAIR Center<http://faircenter.stanford.edu/> seeks proposals for their pilot project program. The program awards seed grants to innovative and meritorious projects that will accelerate the use of AI tools in rehabilitation research. Applicants can request up to $35,000 in funding. The program supports research projects that use or extend tools disseminated by the FAIR Center, including OpenCap, AddBiomechanics, GaitDynamics, and OpenSim. Learn more and apply<https://faircenter.stanford.edu/pilot-funding/pilot-project-application/> Learn about OpenCap, AddBiomechanics, and AI Models at GCMAS and ISB Conferences Receive guidance from the Restore<http://restore.stanford.edu/>, FAIR<http://faircenter.stanford.edu/>, and Mobilize<http://mobilize.stanford.edu/> Center team in upcoming conference workshops focused on OpenCap<http://opencap.ai/> (software for measuring human movement using smartphone videos), AddBiomechanics<http://addbiomechanics.org/> (cloud-based software for computing inverse kinematics and dynamics from marker-based motion capture data), and AI tools. Join us to learn how to utilize these tools for your research. OpenCap and AddBiomechanics: Tools for Large-Scale and Accessible Biomechanics Highlighted Tools: OpenCap, AddBiomechanics June 9-13, 2026 Gait and Clinical Movement Analysis Society (GCMAS) Annual Conference<https://na.eventscloud.com/website/87479/home/> Phoenix, Arizona Accelerating the Use of Artificial Intelligence to Analyze Human Motion: Hands-on Tutorial and Discussion Highlighted Tools: OpenCap, AddBiomechanics, AI tools July 11-16, 2026 World Congress of Biomechanics<https://wcb2026.com/> Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada Neuromusculoskeletal Modeling Pipeline for Treatment Design - Access Resources from Webinar Thank you to everyone who joined the Mobilize<http://mobilize.stanford.edu/>, FAIR<http://faircenter.stanford.edu/>, and Restore<http://restore.stanford.edu/> Centers webinar featuring B.J. Fregly from Rice University entitled “A Hands-on Guide to the NMSM Pipeline for Treatment Design.” Dr. Fregly provided a hands-on guide to the pipeline, including a sequence of hands-on tutorials to perform Model Personalization and Treatment Optimization steps to predict how a former collegiate soccer player should modify his soccer kicking motion to make the ball go farther. Recordings and resources from the webinar are now available.
