Seth Kuhlman earned a B.S. degree in Mechanical Engineering in 2005 and a M.S. degree in Mechanical Engineering in 2007, both from Boise State University. Since graduating in 2007 Seth has been the Lab Manager for the Center for Orthopaedics and Biomechanics Research at Boise State University. Previous to this Seth worked as a Research Assistant at Boise State University designing sonic nozzle profiles for use in nano-satellites. Currently, Seth’s interests focus on biomechanics, control systems, and medical device design.
