10th Anniversary of JFMK: Advances in Kinesiology and Biomechanics

This special issue belongs to the section “Kinesiology and Biomechanics“.

Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The year 2026 will mark the 10th anniversary of the Journal of Functional Morphology and Kinesiology (ISSN: 2411-5142). Appreciation to all authors, reviewers, editorial board members, and readers must be given for their invaluable support, which made reaching this milestone possible. To celebrate this achievement, the journal will lead a Special Issue entitled “10th Anniversary of JFMK: Advances in Kinesiology and Biomechanics”. This collection will highlight the progress achieved in the past decades, current knowledge, and the emerging challenges and opportunities that lie ahead. We invite contributions that span the full spectrum of kinesiology and biomechanics, including but not limited to the following topics:

  • Human motion and performance;
  • Neuromechanics and motor control;
  • Injury prevention and rehabilitation;
  • Ergonomics and occupational biomechanics;
  • Technology, simulation, and modeling;
  • Sports and exercise biomechanics;
  • Emerging and interdisciplinary topics.
