[Opensim-announcement] OpenSim+ Workshop and Resources from Bone and Joint Shape Modeling Webinar

[Matthew Petrucci]

OpenSim+ Advanced User Workshop at Stanford University

March 24-26, 2026

Application deadline: January 7, 2026


We are now accepting applications for a three-day, project-based OpenSim+ workshop on the Stanford University campus. This workshop will take place March 24-26, 2026 and is intended for researchers who are advanced users of our software tools, models, and datasets, including OpenSim, OpenSim Moco, OpenSense, OpenCap, and AddBiomechanics. Advanced users include those who are applying these tools to new use cases, movements, and populations, or developing new pipelines, models, or algorithms. Researchers will work with our staff to advance the goals of their specific research projects. We highly encourage collaborators to participate in the workshop as a team. Travel awards will be granted to top workshop applicants (individuals or groups). The workshop is free and supported by the Wu Tsai Human Performance Alliance<https://humanperformance.stanford.edu/>, Restore Center<https://restore.stanford.edu/>, and Mobilize Center<https://mobilize.stanford.edu/>.

Access Resources from Webinar on Bone and Joint Shape Modeling


Thank you to everyone who joined us for our joint Mobilize<http://mobilize.stanford.edu/>/Restore<http://restore.stanford.edu/> Center webinar featuring Allison Clouthier, PhD from the University of Ottawa and Erin Lee, PhD from the University of Waterloo. They discussed how incorporating joint geometry into musculoskeletal models can reveal insights about the relationship between bone features and increased injury risk. They also led an interactive tutorial demonstrating how to map soft tissue attachment sites across bone geometries using statistical shape models and incorporate those sites into a musculoskeletal model.
