Andrew Greenhalgh

Two of a kind!

I graduated from Liverpool Hope University with a degree in Mathematics and Sports Studies in 2001. I subsequently completed an MSc in Sports Biomechanics at Liverpool John Moores University in 2003, investigating the effects of fatigue on kinetics and kinematics during human locomotion. Following this I worked at Staffordshire University as a PhD Scholar and Part time lecturer in Biomechanics and Research Methods.  During my time at Staffordshire University I gained postgraduate certificates in Research Methods and Professional and Higher Education and supported clinical biomechanical assessments of elite athletes and NHS patients. I worked for a brief period as a lecturer at Bedfordshire University before moving to The University of Central Lancashire where I worked for two years as a lecturer in Sports Biomechanics and Research Methods.  I am currently writing up my PhD entitled “The Kinetics and Kinematics of Field Hockey Footwear”.  My other research areas include the effects of footwear on the impact accelerations experienced during fencing, the effects of tibial rotation on shank mounted accelerometers when measuring impact shock, and also the identification of detrimental impact accelerations experienced through the skeletal system using ground reaction force data compared to shank mounted accelerometers.  I joined the Structure and Motion team as a research technician/ lab manager in August 2009.
