Womp womp. Found out today that our NIH grant that had an impact score of 19 won't be funded. Filing this over under 'Not Funded*' *Due to generally terrible world events and horrible time for US federal funding for research

Anytime we bring on new people (students, postdocs, staff, faculty), I always wish we had more spots based on the number of many amazing applicants. I like to follow the careers of the people who we couldn't hire, and I get a big smile when I see their successes. Keep it up!

We’d love to see these insights help fuel more studies on daily-life head movement in both research and clinical settings. The full dataset is freely available for anyone who wants to dive in! Stay tuned for how these data can help us understand the impact of TBI on daily life!

We continuously monitored 7 days of head and trunk motion using wearable sensors and found that adults make over 5,000 head turns per day, most of them independent of trunk movement — and that these metrics become highly reliable by Day 2.

Peter Fino @pcfino.bsky.social · 21/11/2025

In this work, we outline how to remotely monitor head motion over multiple days by addressing key challenges: 1. Compliance 2. Sensor orientation 3. Normative descriptive statistics 4. Relationships with other continuous monitoring metrics 5. Minimum wear time

🎉Excited to share our latest publication, led by PhD student Selena Cho, on continuous monitoring of head kinematics in daily life! From scanning the environment, to gesturing, to turning — head movements play a critical role in how we interact with the world. ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/112...

Camping in Utah is like video games in the late 90s. You hear info about a special spot, find vague directions online from a sketchy website, spend hours following unmarked roads wondering if this is a waste of time, and then get to the destination and it lives up to the hype. #KeepUtahWild

Sometimes your former lab members plant easter eggs that you discover years later. Like creating custom slack messages that cue off the word 'pizza'

After, I frequently joked that I'm happy to give advice on how to navigate the unfortunate circumstances if your granting agency suddenly disappears overnight. It got many laughs, because people recognized how absurd the situation was. I'm devastated more people will now share a similar experience

Two years ago, there was radical change in the college athletics, including Utah leaving the Pac-12 for the Big 12. At the time, I had a fairly large research grant from the Pac-12. This grant was subsequently terminated, and we lost half the funds.

Waiting to see if we get a grant NOA (when there is no set payline and there is a CR) is 1000000% worse that waiting for a score / summary statement. This uncertainty for a very well-scored application is awful and completely changing how we budget time and money for the next year
