Personal profile

Research interests

I am interested in understanding risk factors for injury in sport, and using that information to help reduce the risk of injury. In particular, I am interested in workloads (i.e., training loads) and their influence upon injury risk. I am also interested in the application of novel statistical techniques to model and study the pathway to injury.

Fingerprint Fingerprint is based on mining the text of the person's scientific documents to create an index of weighted terms, which defines the key subjects of each individual researcher.
