Dagmara Iwańska received a B.S. degree in Teacher Education from the University of Technology and Humanities (formerly: School of Engineering) in Radom, an M.S. in Exercise and Sport Science (with an emphasis in Biomechanics) from the Józef Piłsudski University of Physical Education in Warsaw, and a Ph.D. in Biomechanics (with an emphasis in performance and balance of deaf children) from the Józef Piłsudski University of Physical Education in Warsaw. Currently, Dr. Iwańska is the Co-Director of the Department of Biomedical Sciences. Additionally, she is a member of the Polish Society of Biomechanics. Her research interests lie in the biomechanics of movement and the influence of proprioceptive training on the performance of muscles and joints, especially in relation to comprehensively evaluating the biomechanical capabilities of the musculoskeletal system in women accounting for the changes in sex steroid levels that occur during the menstrual cycle and the GH/IGF-1 axis hormone concentration and collagen metabolism.
