Ann Marie Dale, PhD, (right) of the School of Medicine has conducted studies to evaluate methods to reduce injuries construction workers suffer at work. She currently is studying whether participatory ergonomics can lessen such injuries. She is shown here with Lisa Jaegers (left), also of the School of Medicine, and Fritz Hoffmeister, safety director of C&R Mechanical Co., at the Shriners Hospitals for Children-St. Louis construction site.
