She is currently an associate professor of Movement Science at the University of Michigan's School of Kinesiology and director of the Behavioural Biomechanics Laboratory.
[2] She has also been a member of the American Society of Biomechanics as a fellow and past president and throughout her career has received over US$1.5 million in grant funding.
She is a faculty member at the University of Michigan's School of Kinesiology and has made contributions to the study of human movement, with a focus on biomechanics, emotion, and motor control.
[2] Gross's research spans a variety of topics, including the biomechanical analysis of movement, the interplay between emotion and motor behavior, and educational innovation in anatomy and kinesiology.
As a leader in teaching innovation, Gross has developed novel courses integrating technology with anatomy and biomechanics education, such as using motion capture for analysing expressive movements.
