Hi Yannis

Prof Jim Richards here from University of Central Lancashire here. I run a Movement Analysis Lab here. Always looking for further collaborative links.

Hello Prof. Richards,

are you using jumping platforms i.e Leonardo (jumping mechanography) for measuring the objective parameters of movement?

Best regards

Yannis

[yannis]

thank you

i will look and contact to you again

[yannis]

i am impressed,
your team published so many papers in just 2 years
do you have any trials or projects for osteoporotic women?

[Jim Richards]

We are doing some work on hip protectors but this is at a very ealy stage. It is an area we may expand upon in the future.

I have examined a few PhDs on falls also.

Dear Prof.

if there is anything i can do to help you in your hip protectors study
please contact me
