Physicians
At this conference you will hear from several biomechanics experts including Dr. Narayan Yoganandan, Greg “Sully” Sullenberger and Dr. David Barczyk. It will provide you the opportunity to learn more about motor vehicle collision trauma. Specifically, to help you:
- Identify
- Diagnose
- Treat
- Understand the injury

Law Enforcement / Accident Reconstruction
Join us to learn more about how biomechanics can be used for crash investigation and accident reconstruction:
- Newton’s Laws as they apply to human tissue
- Coefficient of restitution
- Coefficient of friction
- Event data recorders
- Delta-V
- Acceleration

Conference Speakers
-
Dr. Barczyk has been practicing for over 20 years, treating spinal injury cases. He has the distinction of being the only treating doctor in Louisiana that has been qualified to testify as an expert in motor vehicle crash biomechanics. -
A court certified expert in the field of Motor Vehicle Reconstruction and Occupant Kinematics. He is trained in specialized reconstruction areas including pedestrian and bicycle, motorcycle, and commercial vehicles. His certifications include Pennsylvania State Vehicle Inspection Mechanic and user of the CDR(black box) download equipment. Greg is also trained in other areas including Standardized Field Sobriety Testing, Intoxilyzer testing, and is a firearms instructor. -
Narayan Yoganandan, PhD, is Professor and Chairman of Biomedical Engineering in the Department of Neurosurgery and Professor of Biomedical Engineering at Marquette University.

About Dr. David Barczyk
In addition to his undergraduate and doctorate degrees, Dr. David Barczyk has over 250 hours of post doctorate training in biomechanics, occupant kinematics and vehicle dynamics. He also has 135 hours of post graduate study in functional neurology. His knowledge bridges the gap between accident reconstruction, mechanism of injury, human tissue response and pain transmission.
