Evans Ashigbi

Evans Ashigbi is an Associate Professor of Kinesiology in the School of Science and Health at Gordon College, where he joined the faculty in 2024. His teaching focuses on the biomechanics of human movement and the practical applications of Sports and Exercise Science to enhance physical performance and improve health outcomes.

His educational background includes a B.S. from the University of Ghana, an M.S. from Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology, and a Ph.D. from Goethe University.

Dr. Ashigbi's research centers on the prevention and rehabilitation of athletic injuries, particularly those affecting the lower extremity. He investigates mobility disability and access to the built environment, as well as the role of physical activity in managing non-communicable diseases. A major focus of his current work is developing effective return-to-sport (RTS) clearance strategies following anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury to improve outcomes in athletic populations.

While no publications or awards are listed in the available text, his research agenda reflects a strong commitment to translational science in kinesiology and rehabilitation. He is actively engaged in teaching and research at Gordon College, contributing to both academic and clinical advancements in sports medicine and human movement science.

Dr. Ashigbi advises students in kinesiology and related fields, though specific advisees are not named. There is no mention of external grants or funded projects in the provided material.

He is affiliated with the Department of Kinesiology within the School of Science and Health, where he contributes to curriculum development and research initiatives focused on human performance and injury recovery.
