2026 National Biomechanics Day Grant Program
Dear students,
As we begin a new year, we would like to wish all students a happy, healthy, and successful start to 2026. May this year bring new opportunities to learn, grow, and connect with the global biomechanics community.
With that spirit in mind, we are excited to invite you to take part in an initiative that perfectly reflects these goals: Join the National Biomechanics Day on April 8, 2026!
National Biomechanics Day (NBD) is a worldwide initiative that brings the breakthrough science of biomechanics to life for high school students, teachers, and communities everywhere. It is a day dedicated to celebrating how biomechanics helps us understand movement, health, sport, injury prevention, and to inspiring the next generation of scientists and engineers to explore this exciting field.
This event offers a unique opportunity to connect with others through hands-on activities, demonstrations, lab tours, virtual sessions, and outreach events that make science engaging and accessible.
Why Attend or Host an NBD Event?
Grants & Scholarships: Support to Make Your Event Happen
If you’re interested in organizing an NBD event or expanding your outreach, grants and scholarships are available through The Biomechanics Initiative and sponsors.
You can find details and apply on the official NBD grants page:
A few years ago, I had the chance to help organize one of these NBD events, and it was truly inspiring to see the difference it made for high school students. After participating in biomechanics activities, we observed a clear increase in students’ confidence with science and their intentions to pursue science further. Seeing young minds light up with curiosity reminded me why outreach like this matters. Not just for biomechanics, but for the future of science as a whole.
All the best,

Why Attend or Host an NBD Event?
- Inspire young learners: NBD is designed to ignite curiosity about science and help students envision a future in STEM.
- Celebrate biomechanics: Share the impact of this multidisciplinary science with broader audiences: from motion capture demos to real-world applications of biomechanics in health and sport.
- Connect with the global community: Events take place internationally, bringing together biomechanics groups from around the world.
