As part of the award, the International Symposium of Ligaments and Tendons (ISL&T) has identified Chavaunne as a young researcher who is conducting “the best research studies” in one of their three categories. Chavaunne’s podium presentation was entitled “Fatigue loading causes a reduction in the ability of tendon fascicles to recoil.”
As part of the award, Chavaunne’s research has benefitted from additional funding to the sum of $1000.
We at SEMS would like to congratulate Chavaunne and wish her all the best for her future research.
