Dr Stuart McErlain-Naylor is a Lecturer in Sport and Exercise Biomechanics at Loughborough University, UK. He graduated from Loughborough University in 2013 with a B.Sc. in Sport and Exercise Sciences. This was followed by a Ph.D. at Loughborough in the computer simulation of sports biomechanics. He worked as a Lecturer and Senior Lecturer at the University of Suffolk from 2018 to 2022 before re-joining Loughborough University as a Lecturer in the School of Sport, Exercise and Health Sciences. His main area of research focus is the integration of wearable technology and musculoskeletal modelling to provide individual-specific estimates of loading on tissues during training/rehabilitation. Applications of this work include training load monitoring and prescription. Additional areas of research focus have included the analysis of sporting techniques (mostly racket/bat sports) and the mechanics of flywheel resistance exercise. He is the Vice President (Publications) for the International Society of Biomechanics in Sports (ISBS).
