Bio

Bob’s main field is biomechanics – the mechanics of the human body and motion. His background is physical education/sport and exercise science, having taught at universities in New Zealand or Australia since 1974. In the past his research has included locomotion analysis, sport performance assessment and ergonomic evaluation. More recently his research has included evaluation of primary health care interventions. Bob is currently working with colleagues at the University of Auckland on a number of projects around the effects of chronic disease, and with researchers in Australia and Denmark on bowling technique in cricket. Through the NZ Academy of Sport he is also working with athletes in diving and yachting.
