Biography
BSc (Salford), PhD (Salford), Postdoctoral research, University of Salford. Lecturer in Sport Biomechanics, University of Brighton. Lecturer in Sport and Exercise Biomechanics (1995�present).
Research Interest
Biomechanics of lower limb function The principle research undertaken examines the biomechanical function of the lower limb and spine. This includes the biomechanical aetiology of overuse injury in physical activity, sport and exercise; the mechanical adaptation to locomotion under various external conditions or novel environments; and the influence of prosthetics on gait.
