Chadwick, Edward, Ph.D.
"My main areas of research are biomechanical modelling of the upper limb, human movement analysis and motor control. I’m currently interested in the causes of shoulder pain in stroke and its relationship to gleno-humeral instability, the use of FES in the treatment of shoulder pain and the restoration of arm function, and the mechanisms governing shoulder stability and control in general."
