PhD Candidate in Sports Rehabilitation and WPCPT-certified Physical Therapist
School of Sports Medicine and Rehabilitation, Beijing Sport University, China (People's Republic)
Bing Ruan is a WPCPT-certified physical therapist and a faculty member at the Sports Medicine and Rehabilitation Center, School of Sports Medicine and Rehabilitation, Beijing Sport University. As a PhD candidate, Bing specializes in chronic ankle instability (CAI) and has built a strong foundation in clinician-oriented research. Her work bridges clinical practice and research, contributing significantly to the understanding of dynamic postural stability and rehabilitation strategies for individuals with CAI.
Bing's academic achievements reflect her extensive expertise in CAI research and her ability to translate complex laboratory findings into actionable clinical practices. Among her recent contributions is the publication "Using Clinician-Oriented and Laboratory-Oriented Assessments to Study Dynamic Stability of Individuals with Chronic Ankle Instability" (iScience, 2024). This study provides a critical comparison of clinician-oriented and laboratory-based evaluation methods, offering new insights into how clinicians can effectively assess and manage CAI in real-world settings. Additionally, her work, "Uphill Treadmill Running and Joint Mobilization Improve Dynamic Stability and Ankle Dorsiflexion Range of Motion in Young Adults with Chronic Ankle Instability" (Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, 2024), highlights innovative rehabilitation techniques tailored for CAI populations.
Another notable achievement includes her first-author study, "The Proprioception and Postural Stability Characteristics of Perceived Instability Subgroups in Chronic Ankle Instability" (International Journal of Sports Physical Therapy, 2019), which identified key balance impairments in CAI subgroups, establishing a theoretical foundation for tailored rehabilitation strategies. Bing also contributed to a systematic review on VR-based rehabilitation for functional ankle instability, presented at the 12th Sports Rehabilitation Science Conference in 2021, further showcasing her dedication to integrating technology into clinical practice.
In addition to her research, Bing has demonstrated exceptional leadership in mentoring young researchers. In this study, she played a pivotal role in guiding Rui and the research team, providing expertise in project coordination, experimental design, and manuscript preparation. Her mentorship fosters rigorous academic standards while promoting innovative approaches to rehabilitation science.
Bing's contributions extend to clinical rehabilitation, where she developed evidence-based protocols for elite athletes, including the Chinese National Women's Boxing Team, leading to their success at the 2024 Paris Olympics. Her work emphasizes personalized, evidence-based strategies that bridge theory and practice.
As the deputy leader of the Youth Group of the Chinese Association of Rehabilitation Medicine Foot and Ankle Professional Committee, Bing actively engages in advancing the field of sports rehabilitation. Her integration of AI and VR technologies into clinical settings demonstrates her commitment to enhancing the accessibility and efficacy of rehabilitation interventions.
Through her dedication to research, clinical innovation, and mentorship, Bing Ruan continues to drive advancements in sports rehabilitation, particularly in the field of chronic ankle instability. Her contributions not only deepen scientific understanding but also lead to improved patient outcomes in real-world settings.
