Biography
Clark Dickerson is a Professon of Biomechancis at the division of Kinesiology in University of Waterloo.
Research Interest
My overriding goal as a researcher is to produce new information to improve both working and general quality of life, with a particular focus on shoulder health and performance. In summary, my research program aims to generate new knowledge in four major areas: Fundamental shoulder function and dysfunction; Creation and validation of mathematical models to predict shoulder demands Applications of shoulder biomechanics to workplace injury prevention Rehabilitative and preventative strategies for ensuring shoulder health
