Sports biomechanics
Join us to advance biomechanics research and explore cutting-edge practices, technologies, and evidence-based findings in orthopaedics, sports medicine, and sports science.
The course offers a unique opportunity to explore in depth the cutting edge of biomechanics research within orthopaedics, sports medicine, and sports science. You will explore fundamental biomechanical principles and their applications while gaining practical experience with state-of-the-art techniques such as joint stability measurement, model-based image matching, and on-field motion analysis. The course emphasises translating research into practice, equipping you with valuable skills applicable to biomechanical assessments.
As a participant, you will benefit from opportunities to present your work, receive constructive feedback, and network with experts in the field, helping you foster your future research directions.
