Thomas Kernozek, Drew Rutherford, Sherwin Toribio, Hannah Jaime, C.N. Vannatta and Becky Heinert

Thomas Kernozek and Drew Rutherford, both Health Professions; Sherwin Toribio, Mathematics & Statistics; Hannah Jaime, Gundersen Sports Medicine; C.N. Vannatta, Physical Therapy (now with Gundersen Health System); and Becky Heinert, Physical Therapy (now with Winona State University); co-authored the article "Augmented feedback response by vertical ground reaction force in adolescent female athletes" in International Journal of Sports Physical Therapy, which was accepted for publication by American Academy of Sports Physical Therapy. Hannah Jaime was a resident with Gundersen Health System in the Sports Physical Therapy residency program. This project was a result of ongoing collaboration between the La Crosse Institute for Movement Science (LIMS) in the UWL Physical Therapy Program and Gundersen. Annually, residents participate in research through LIMS. CN Vannatta directs the research component of the residency.

Susan Kelly and Megan Scott

Susan Kelly and Megan Scott, both Mathematics & Statistics, co-authored the article "Gloria Ford Gilmer" in the Oxford African American Studies Center that was accepted for publication by Oxford University Press. This biography tells the story of the first African American woman to have her mathematics papers archived at the Library of Congress (LOC), and this research included work at the LOC with this collection. Gilmer had a Wisconsin connection that included some advanced mathematics studies at UW–Madison and a Ph.D. in Education from Marquette University. She was also the first African American instructor of mathematics in Milwaukee’s public schools, at the Milwaukee Area Technical College, and at UW–Milwaukee. Modest payments are made for authoring these biographies. These funds together with the funds from two other biographies by Kelly were instead donated, and the Milwaukee Public Schools will receive $600 in free books published by Oxford University Press.
