Musculoskeletal Mechanics

Musculoskeletal Mechanics

The Musculoskeletal Mechanics Group combines experimental and computational approaches to the study of bone, joint and whole-body mechanics.

We investigate the structure and function in healthy as well as injured or diseased states using optical and electromagnetic tracking, finite element analysis, imaging, experimental testing, and muscle modelling. With this research we hope to gain a fundamental understanding of the influence of mechanical loads in health, disease and extreme performance on the musculoskeletal system.

Positions Available

Thank you for your interest in musculoskeletal biomechanics research within the group.

Please note that Professor Bull is currently not taking on any new PhD students as primary supervisor. Please contact other staff if you wish you joint Imperial for musculoskeletal biomechanics research.

Prof Anthony Bull is happy to sponsor anyone with a strong track record who would like to apply for their own fellowship or scholarship to join his research group as a fellow/postdoctoral researcher. Please contact him directly if interested in any of these.
