with the database developer to refine and expand the metadata schema into a

conducted. Medical knowledge is a plus. This collection remains significant
to this day because it forms the basis for all research being done with
crash test dummies, the research done at NBDL cannot be reproduced due to
modern research standards and the biodynamics community is eager to be able
to access the data for current and future research.
