About FJ Goodwin

Dr. FJ Goodwin serves as the Director of Research and Associate Professor in the Physical Therapy Program at Charleston Southern University. Dr. Goodwin earned his Bachelor of Science in Health and Exercise Science from Furman University, his Doctorate in Physical Therapy from East Carolina University and his PhD in Human Movement Science with a specialization in Biomechanics from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Dr. Goodwin’s primary research focus involves lower extremity biomechanics in athletic populations, predominantly runners. He is interested in the underlying joint and tissue mechanics that can potentially contribute to unique injury patterns. Ideally, advances along these research lines will lead to improved develop of novel treatment interventions to improve physical activity participation and reduce injury burden.

"I believe our role and purpose in the CSU Physical Therapy Program is to shape intelligent and compassionate physical therapists. By doing so, we can help students achieve their life missions along with positively impacting health and wellness throughout the state of South Carolina."
