Tereza, a native of the Czech Republic, earned a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering with Emphasis in Biomedical Engineering (2020) and a Master of Science in Engineering Science with Emphasis in Mechanical Engineering (2022) at the University of Mississippi in the United States. During her studies, Tereza represented the University of Mississippi as a member of the NCAA Division I tennis team. Her master’s thesis focused on the development of a patient-specific 3D-printed arm cast for fracture stabilization. Following graduation, she moved to Lexington, Kentucky, where she worked as a Scientist in the BioMotion Laboratory at the University of Kentucky from 2022 to 2025. Her research focused on the biomechanics of movement and functional recovery following lower-extremity injuries, including ACL reconstruction, patellar instability, and lower-extremity fractures. Since November 2025, Tereza has been working at the Department of Sport Science at the University of Innsbruck and is now pursuing a PhD in the “Neurophysiology Research Area” under the supervision of Ass. Prof. Maurice Mohr and Prof. Peter Federolf.
