A great time at the 2023 Footwear Biomechanic Symposium celebrating “Footwear for everybody”. I was given the amazing opportunity to be a finalist for the Nike Award alongside 2 great female biomechanists and received runners up for my research on inclusivity of footwear in netball

Congrats Dr Joshua Mattock on a great poster presentation at the 2023 Footwear Biomechanic Conference in Osaka, Japan. Josh shared his research on “Does running experience influence static and dynamic measures of foot structure and function?” 🦶🏻 🏃‍♂️

My IntSoc Biomechanics poster is up :) If you want to know more about articular contact mechanics of the ankle and subtalar joint, come and talk to me during todays poster session or let me know during the day. #ISBJSB2023

Congrats to Maddy Kirk on being named as a finalist & runners up for the prestigious Nike Award at the 2023 FBS in Japan. The theme was “Celebrating inclusivity in footwear: Solve for someone new” and Maddy shared her research on inclusivity in netball footwear UOW #WomenInSTEM

Our BRL members Josh Mattock, Maddy Kirk & Emeritus Professor Julie Steele AM with Kim Hébert-Losier exploring Osaka city as they attended the 2023 FBS. Now they’re off to Fukuoka currently attending IntSoc Biomechanics, stay tuned for more updates regarding their presentations!

Day 1 of IntSoc Biomechanics conference, Emeritus Professor Julie Steele AM had the honour of presenting the prestigious Wartenweiler Memorial Lecture. Julie’s inspiring talk was titled “Pioneering women of ISB: Tales from the Archives & beyond” and highlighted the contributions of women to biomechanics

Embracing the Japanese culture with some fellow Aussies Aaron Fox & Meghan Keast in Fukuoka 🇯🇵

Today I’ll be presenting some of my research on “Sex differences in netball players’ foot shape: Implications for shoe design” at ~11:15am during the Sports Biomechanics 7 session in Room 2. If you’re around at IntSoc Biomechanics and interested, come and check it out 🇯🇵👟

Maddy Kirk bringing netball (and @juniorlevi_) to an international audience at #ISBJSB2023 presenting her work on sex differences in foot shape of players. Take home message = more men's netball shoe options are likely required 👟 #ISB2023 #ISB50

A great talk from Dr Josh Mattock at IntSoc Biomechanics this week titled “Are sagittal plane leg alignment and the active peak force generated during running associated with MTSS development? 🏃🏼‍♀️ UOW Research

Congrats to @Samara_Brown4 for delivering her PhD exit seminar today & being one step closer to being a Dr!Wouldn’t want to share this journey through undergrad, honours & PhD with anyone else!! UOW Research Molecular Horizons @ UOW UOW #WomenInSTEM Kelly Newell Naomi May Helen Clunas

WOW, what a week at the 2023 Sports Medicine Australia conference! Stay tuned to hear more about our five exciting presentations and award winnings 🤗 #ASICSSMA2023

Congratulations to Early Career Researcher, Maddison Kirk, winner of the John Sutton Award for Best Paper in Sports and Exercise Science. #ASICSSMA2023 Maddison's winning paper is titled "Do male and female netball players' feet differ in shape? Implications for shoe design."

Incredibly proud of you, Maddy! You crushed it! Fabulous presentation and impactful research, as always. UOW Research Biomechanics Research Laboratory

It was an absolute honour to supervise your research over the past few years, Maddy. I couldn't have asked for a better final PhD. "The circle is now complete" 🥰 UOW Research Biomechanics Research Laboratory #biomechanics

A great feeling Maddy Kirk!!

Shout out to Maddy from our Biomechanics Research Lab (Biomechanics Research Laboratory), who is paving the way for young women in our community 👏✨ 🔗Link to the article in original post.

A couple of years ago, I travelled around Australia scanning thousands of feet of netball players. You can read all about the findings in my recent publication “Do the feet of male and female netball players differ in shape? Implications for shoe design”. 1/8 ⬇️🧵

I’m happy to share the final publication of my PhD “Do foot type classifications differ between male and female netball players? A cluster analysis”. Link to article - tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10… More details below ⬇️🧵1/8

Bringing biomechanics to outback, NSW with a BRInC program x National Biomechanics Day collab! Both programs aim to ⬆️ students participation in biomechanics, specifically targeting groups such as, women & those from remote areas who are ⬇️ likely to engage in STEM. What a great trip!
