Dr. Jennifer Xu presented "Movement is Medicine: The Next Steps in Treating Heel Pain" as part of the Postdoc Talk Competition during the University of Kentucky's 2025 Society of Postdoctoral Scholars Annual Research & Career Symposium.
Jen Xu is a postdoctoral scholar in the Sports Medicine Research Institute in the Department of Athletic Training & Clinical Nutrition, in the College of Health Sciences at UK. As an athletic trainer, she is passionate about her research that is focused on developing effective rehabilitation interventions for foot and ankle disorders. These disorders cause pain and limit physical activity, which can result in detrimental long-term effects on general health and well-being. Currently, Jen is working on several multi-million dollar studies funded by the Department of Defense and Air Force Research Laboratory; she is collecting data, performing interventions, and publishing research. Jen graduated in May of 2025 from the University of Virginia’s School of Education and Human Development with a PhD in Kinesiology and Sports Medicine. She focused on assessment and rehabilitation for the intrinsic foot muscles, which are important in foot function and even general health. Jen previously obtained her M.S. in Health and Human Movement from Utah State University in 2020, and her B.S. in Athletic Training from the University of Pittsburgh in 2017.
