Dr Martin Warner PhD

Associate Professor
Research interests
  • My research is focsued on enabling lifelong active living and healthy ageing through optimising neuro-musculoskeletal health. Specifically, my programme of research involves understanding the mechanisms of movement dysfunction and the development and validation of new technologies for research and clinical assessments. This research encompasses musculoskeletal to neurological diseases and various contexts including sports, occupational readiness, including astronauts in space and military personnel, and healthy ageing.

  • I have a particualr in interest and expertise in biomechanics of the shoulder and upper limb where I have developed and validated methods for measuring scapular and upper limb kinematics. These have been applied to understanding the biomechanical function of shoulder and neck pain, upper limb function following stroke, through to sports performance such as hand-cycling and swimming.
