Dr Wyse Jackson has a multidisciplinary background conducting research in physics, biomedical engineering, and biophysics. At Exponent, Dr Wyse Jackson addresses issues involving the biomechanics of human injury in a variety of events including, pedestrian accidents, slip, trip, and fall events, and motor vehicle collisions.

Before starting at Exponent, Dr Wyse Jackson obtained his Ph.D. in Physics, with a minor in Biomedical Engineering, from Cornell University, where he developed computational models to describe the mechanical properties of articular cartilage based on its composition and validated these models with mechanical and compositional testing.
