معرفی
Carlos Zerpa serves as an Associate Professor in the Department of Kinesiology at Lakehead University, where his work bridges biomechanics, cognitive science, and rehabilitation technology development.
His academic credentials include:
- PhD from a joint program of Lakehead, Windsor, and Brock Universities
- MEd from Lakehead University
- BSc in Mathematical Science from Lakehead University
- BSc in Computer Science from Lakehead University
Research spans injury biomechanics (concussion mechanisms, gait analysis), assistive mobility technologies, and cognitive dual-tasking during rehabilitation. His methodology integrates neural network applications for instrument calibration, item response theory modeling, and statistical prediction frameworks to advance helmet technologies, prosthetic design, and concussion assessment protocols.
Dr. Zerpa teaches across the kinesiology curriculum including Introduction to Biomechanics (KIN 2015), Advanced Biomechanics (KIN 5453), Ergonomics (KIN 4310), and specialized courses in statistical analysis and clinical data interpretation.
