My primary research focus is the investigation of spinal disorders, pain and dysfunction during functional movement. This includes: neuromuscular control, muscle imbalance, disc degeneration, vertebral osteoarthritis, motor control dysfunction and biomechanics to better understand underlying mechanisms of pain and to inform effective rehabilitation and prevention strategies. I am also interested in the management and prevention of musculoskeletal disorders and wellbeing in the workforce, with current projects exploring musculoskeletal injuries in allied health and musician populations.
