Apologies for cross posting
Building on the success of previous meetings, Staffordshire University is pleased to announce the 15th consecutive conference
on clinical biomechanics at the University Campus, Stoke on Trent (May 4-6, 2017). This conference provides a forum for information dissemination on lower limb clinical biomechanics and will facilitate discussion on research and case studies in this field
via plenary sessions.
This year's conference will focus on musculoskeletal biomechanics of the lower limb, with sessions dedicated to (1) biomechanics
of musculoskeletal injury in sport, (2) biomechanics of the foot at risk (with a focus on Diabetes), (3) footwear biomechanics and orthotics and (4) novel techniques in clinical assessment.
The keynote speakers will outline the latest developments in the area of pathomechanics and pathology of the foot at risk
and highlight the role of technology in understanding biomechanical principles with a focus on diagnosis and management of patients. There will be opportunities for debate and analysis of issues surrounding these topics. There will be pre conference workshops
in related areas.
