Chelsea M. Lohman

Chelsea M. Lohman serves as an Associate Professor in the Department of Cell and Developmental Biology at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus, where her work bridges clinical anatomy with rehabilitation sciences. Her research focuses on biomechanical analysis of neural and vascular structures using cadaveric models, with direct applications in athletic training and clinical diagnostics.

Dr. Lohman earned her Ph.D. in Rehabilitation Sciences from Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center. Her scholarly contributions span:

• Neurodynamic testing protocols for cervical spine assessment
• Validation of ultrasound techniques for joint pathology
• Documentation of vascular anatomical variations
• Interdisciplinary approaches to the Female Athlete Triad

Her publication trends reveal consistent innovation in clinical anatomy methodology, particularly through minimally invasive cadaveric studies that quantify nerve displacement during neural tension testing. Recent work emphasizes translational applications in sports medicine, including vascular anomaly documentation for surgical planning and ultrasound validation for musculoskeletal diagnostics. Collaborations frequently involve physical therapy and athletic training specialists, reflecting her commitment to clinically relevant anatomical research.

Dr. Lohman maintains active professional engagement through:

• Editorial Board membership for Clinical Anatomy (2016–present)
• Leadership in the American Association of Clinical Anatomists' Terminology Committee (Co-Chair since 2018)
• Accreditation site visits for athletic training programs (2012–present)
• Textbook reviews for major publishers including Lippincott and Slack Incorporated

Her manuscript reviewing portfolio spans high-impact journals such as Journal of Manual and Manipulative Therapy and Anatomical Sciences Education, demonstrating sustained contribution to anatomical scholarship.
