Dr Justine Robilliard

A horse & rider jumping a cross country jump

Whilst studying for her BSc (Hons) in Equine Science at Bristol University, Justine developed an interest in biomechanics whilst completing her research dissertation investigating the function of the equine digital cushion. Justine joined the team in the autumn of 2002, to study the efficiency of locomotion as a BBSRC funded PhD. She graduated in 2006--- good luck Justine!
