After completing my undergraduate degree in physiotherapy at RGU, I was employed in the NHS as a physiotherapist for many years. Then, after a short time in a research post at the University of Queensland Australia, I completed my PhD in spinal biomechanics (including kinematics, electromyography and magentic resonance imaging) at the University of Veterinary Medicine Vienna, Austria. From there I took up a post-doctoral position at the University of Edinburgh, where I continued my research work in the evaluation of muscle activation in low back pain. Since joining UWS in 2016, I have continued my research in spinal muscle morphology and electrophysiological behaviour in both rehabilitation and pain, as well as the evaluation of biomechanics and injury in sport and performance, with a particular focus in runners and the female athlete.
I am the programme leader for the BSc (Hons) Sport and Exercise programme at UWS. My main teaching activities focus around anatomy, kinesiology, biomechanics, injury, and research methods. I am also part of the supervisory team of several PhD and MRes students, and co-lead a CPD module in research for healthcare professionals.
