About the Scientific Collective

The MMSx Scientific & Clinical Collective is a global, voluntary network of researchers, clinicians, sports scientists, and performance specialists contributing to the advancement of biomechanics as a structured decision science. Participation is non-commercial and contribution-based — there are no membership fees, no fixed hours, and no administrative obligations.

The Collective provides the peer-validation and expert feedback infrastructure that supports the institute's research program, framework development, and JMMBS editorial process.
