Dr. Neti is a Senior Biomechanist specializing in applying the principles of human factors and biomechanics to explore the cause, nature, and severity of injuries to the human body.  He has extensive experience conducting research in  gait mechanics, human motion capture, medical product design and development, rehabilitation engineering, machine learning, engineering education, and clinical practice education as well. Dr. Neti applies this work to all segments of the human body involved in collisions and other impact-producing events.

Dr. Neti earned his Bachelors of Science in Biomedical Engineering with a minor and concentration in biomechanics from the University of Delaware. He then continued his studies and obtained a Ph. D. in Bioengineering with a concentration in human movement and rehabilitation from the University of Pittsburgh.

His scientific research has focused on human movement, injury mechanisms, and medical device development and design. He has skills in mechanical design, wearable sensor data, time-series analysis, 3D motion capture analysis, machine learning, and failure modes effect analysis. Dr. Neti’s doctoral dissertation analyzed the implementation of an in-wheel suspension for manual wheelchair users, detailing the users’ comfort, pain, and fatigue over a three-month intervention. He also led the effort in the TransKinect project, a computer-vision program, which was developed to assist clinicians in evaluating the biomechanical quality of wheelchair transfers.
