Lasse Hansen

Lasse Hansen is a PhD student at the Institute of Biomechanics and Orthopaedics, part of the German Sport University Cologne. His research focuses on musculoskeletal biomechanics, particularly knee osteoarthritis and muscle physiology, with emphasis on gait analysis, joint loading mechanisms, and exoskeleton applications. He has actively contributed to interdisciplinary projects involving esports physiology and gender-specific biomechanical responses.

Key professional activities include guest lecturing on kinematics/kinetics and sports physiotherapy at the university level. He conducted a research visit at the University of New South Wales (2018), fostering international collaboration. His work integrates clinical biomechanics with experimental protocols, such as studying unloader braces for osteoarthritis and exoskeleton efficacy in cognitively demanding tasks.

Hansen's publications span biomechanical journals and international conferences, addressing topics like muscle synergy alterations in osteoarthritis patients and fatigue metrics in esports athletes. He collaborates across disciplines, bridging sports science, rehabilitation engineering, and digital health innovations.
