Speaker

Biomechanics can be complex. A good talk does not have to be.

I speak about biomechanics wherever scientific findings need to be put in context and applied to concrete questions. It is not about simply explaining research, but about relevance to the topic, the audience and the event: what do we know, how sure are we, and what does that mean for practice? Whether association, company or specialist congress – engaging and easy to follow, with images and examples from sport, and with full scientific depth where it is wanted.

Biomechanics for your audience

Talks are aimed at different audiences: specialists, coaches, associations, companies, students and anyone interested in movement, performance, load or technology. Content and scientific depth are tailored to the event and the audience.

Focus areas depend on the context, for example sports biomechanics, human-technology interaction, sports technology or prosthetics. The talk does not come from a standard programme but is developed to fit the question and the audience.

The core format: a self-contained talk of around 45 minutes, told in a relaxed way and scientifically sound, followed by room for questions and discussion. For associations, clubs, companies and teams – no prior knowledge needed. Complex biomechanics becomes tangible through images, examples from sport and clear take-aways, instead of disappearing into formulas.
