Interests
Read more about my interests in teaching and research.
Biomechanics/Motion Theory.
I am interested in biomechanics in sports, especially in disability sports.
My PhD work is about developing two new Paralympic disciplines, para-kayak and para-va'a, by developing the classification systems and investigating performance factors.
Works closely with the International Canoe Federation. Has previously developed an evidence-based classification system for para-kayaks for the International Canoe Federation and the International Paralympic Committee together with Dr. Anna Bjerkefors.
