Observing the observer : experiences with contextual inquiry to design a horse rider assessment interface (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Current approaches to the postural assessment of horse riders is highly subjective, with a lack of
consistency between practitioners. A technology based
solution would remove the human
perspective and enable a more consistent, accurate and objecti... Read More about Observing the observer : experiences with contextual inquiry to design a horse rider assessment interface.

A generalizable methodology for stability assessment of walking aid users (2017)
Journal Article

To assist balance and mobility, older adults are often prescribed walking aids. Nevertheless, surprisingly their use has been associated with increased falls-risk. To address this finding we first need to characterise a person’s stability while using... Read More about A generalizable methodology for stability assessment of walking aid users.

Skill assessment in upper limb myoelectric prosthesis users : validation of a clinically feasible method for characterising upper limb temporal and amplitude variability during the performance of functional tasks (2017)
Journal Article

Upper limb myoelectric prostheses remain challenging to use and are often abandoned. A proficient user must be able to plan/execute arm movements while activating the residual muscle(s), accounting for delays and unpredictability in prosthesis respon...

Agonistic and antagonistic drug action (2017)
Journal Article
Robertson, D. (2017). Agonistic and antagonistic drug action. Nurse Prescribing, 15(7), 356-358. https://doi.org/10.12968/npre.2017.15.7.356

In this article in the series of ‘bite sized’ pharmacology, we will look at the concepts of agonism and antagonism with regards to drug action. These pharmacodynamic actions affect how a drug acts at its target site and the body's response to the dru... Read More about Agonistic and antagonistic drug action.

A comparison of catch phase force-time characteristics during clean derivatives from the knee (2017)
Journal Article
Comfort, P., Williams, R., Suchomel, T., & Lake, J. (2017). A comparison of catch phase force-time characteristics during clean derivatives from the knee. Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, 31(7), 1911-1918. https://doi.org/10.1519/JSC.0000000000001660

The aim of this study was to compare load-absorption force-time characteristics of the clean from the knee (CK), power clean from the knee (PCK) and clean pull from the knee (CPK). Ten collegiate athletes (age 27.5 ± 4.2 years; height 180.4 ± 6.7 cm;... Read More about A comparison of catch phase force-time characteristics during clean derivatives from the knee.
