Li Li is an Associate Professor with tenure at the Louisiana State University. He is the Director of the Biomechanics Laboratory. He is adjunct professor of the Department of Biological and Agricultural Engineering, and the School of Veterinary Sciences. He also has visiting professor appointments at the University of Colorado Health Sciences Center and University North Carolina School of Medicine. Dr. Li received his Ph.D. from the University of Massachusetts and his master degree from National Institute of Sport Science (China) in the area of biomechanics. His undergraduate degree is in Physics from Peking University. Dr. Li’s researches focus on the control of the human movement systems. More specifically, his research projects related to the control of stable state and the transition between different stable states. Dr. Li has be part of multidisciplinary research projects that were supported by more $4 million research grants from different grant agencies. His research papers published in Journal of Biomechanics, Journal of Applied Biomechanics and Clinical Biomechanics among other top rated peer reviewed journals. He has presented at numerous regional, national, and international conferences. His research related to the functional improvements of people with peripheral neuropathy have recently gained wide spread news media reports. It has been reported on network television, newspaper, and web publications. Dr. Li has been actively serve the biomechanics community for more two decades. He has presented as keynote and invited speaker at many national and international conferences. He has served on the editorial board of the Journal of Electromyography and Kinesiology since 2001. He has also served as a guest reviewer for numerous journals in the field of biomechanics. To recognize his contribution to the field of research, he has been elected as Fellows of the AAHPERD Research Consortium and American College of Sports Medicine.

Dr. Li joined ISB as a group member through the Chinese Society of Biomechanics in 1988 and then renewed as individual member since 1999.

He says: “Collaborations among biomechanists and biomechanical organizations around the world and promotes the study of human movement is an important issue for the health and well being of people all over the world.”
