Speaker and Workshop ProfilesProfessor Karim Khan

Talk: Keynote SpeechWorkshop: Getting research published

Karim is the editor in chief of the British Journal of Sports Medicine. He is the co-author (with Peter Brukner) of Clinical Sports Medicine, and a Professor of British Columbia University. His over 300 research publications span high-risk clinical groups such as those with work-related tendon injuries, older people with osteoporosis and more recently those with Type 2 Diabetes.

Professor Heather McKay (@DrHeatherMcKay)

Professor Faculty of Medicine, University of British Columbia

Talk: If we know that it works, why isn’t everyone doing it?Workshop: Great! My injury prevention program works. How do I roll it out?

Professor McKay’s research program investigates the role of physical activity as a prevention strategy to enhance health at key time points – childhood, adolescence and later life. Specifically, her research evaluates the positive role of physical activity, other lifestyle factors and the built environment on child, youth and older adult health and mobility. She is well known for building interdisciplinary teams and connecting with community partners to move research findings into action (knowledge mobilization). Through an implementation science lens she evaluates implementation of effective intervention models at scale as a means to improve health on a population scale. Her work has directly influenced organizational and government policy.

Her ability to meaningfully engage stakeholders, including government, to take upstream action to improve health was acknowledged through a Knowledge Translation Award from the Canadian Institutes of Health Research and a BC Woman of Distinction Award for Health & Active Living.

Dr Nial Elliott

Chair

Talk: More Active? Can our MSK services cope? Lessons from Tayside

A unique MSK clinic was conceived and set up in 2005 with the opportunity to create a different pathway for patient referrals for MSK issues. From the outset, this multi-disciplinary clinic offers access to the right clinical specialist with the right skills to help examine, investigate, diagnose and treat a wide range of musculoskeletal pathologies. With increasing evidence supporting active lifestyles for population health outcomes, Primary and Secondary Care integration is key to delivering patient-focussed MSK services. Dr Elliott will present on the results from the Tayside clinic and discuss the lessons learnt as well as where the future lies in using key Sport and Exercise Medicine skills to support this important area of healthcare.

Dr Niall Elliott is Head of Sports Medicine at the Scottish Institute of Sport as well as medical lead for NHS Tayside’s Primary Care Musculoskeletal Clinic at Kings Cross Hospital in Dundee. He has extensive experience of working in performance sport as well as developing and supporting Primary Care MSK services in Tayside. The MSK clinic in Dundee was set up in 2005 and remains unique in Scotland. He’s a keen enthusiast and advocate for an active lifestyle which normally involves club cycling or Park Run tourism if he’s not running the Angus hills.

Professor Emmanuel (Manos) Stamatakis; PhD, MSc, BSc

Associate Professor, NHMRC Senior Research Fellow

Talk: Physical activity and health: what we know, what we need to find out

Emmanuel’s talk will offer a snapshot of the latest findings of epidemiological research on physical activity and health, will discuss what these findings mean for public health and clinical practice, and will outline future directions in the field.

Emmanuel completed a PhD at the University of Bristol, and, between 2003 and 2013, he was based at University College London. In 2014 he joined Charles Perkins Centre of the University of Sydney where he leads an inter-disciplinary program of research on the influence of lifestyle and health behaviours on health and wellbeing. He has published extensively in leading epidemiological and medical journals and his work has received numerous research awards and extensive international media coverage. Emmanuel is currently the British Journal of Sports Medicine section editor for physical activity and sedentary behaviour.

Dr David Hulse (@drdavehulse)

Sports & Exercise Medicine (consultant)

Talk: Exercise-induced leg painWorkshop: New insights into chronic exertional compartment syndrome

Diagnoses in exercise-induced leg pain: discussion around case histories.New insights into the diagnosis and biomechanics of anterior chronic exertional compartment syndrome.Discuss a ‘best practice’ approach to the management of these conditions based on the military experience.

David is a sport and exercise physician with specialist expertise in exercise-related leg pain and cycling injuries. He qualified from Glasgow University in 1996 and initially undertook specialty training in trauma and orthopaedic surgery.

He completed specialty training in SEM in London in 2009. Since 2011 he has been a Consultant at the Defence Medical Rehabilitation Centre, Headley Court, where he has led the clinical service for exercise-related leg pain, including ongoing research into the diagnosis and biomechanics of anterior chronic exertional compartment syndrome.

Dr Phil Glasgow (@philglasgow)

Talk: Managing the load: Simple, isn’t it?

Whilst there is an increasing understanding of the relationship between volume of loading and injury prevention, often rehabilitation or injury prevention advice is used interchangeably, regardless of the type of tissue being targeted. Different tissue types (bone, tendons, ligaments and muscles) have different functional roles, and consequently, different histological and mechanical properties.

Restoration of these unique biomechanical properties after injury may therefore require a particular volume, speed or dosage of mechanical loading during rehabilitation in order to prevent re-injury.

This talk will consider some key principles to maximise adaptation to loading and minimise recurrence of injury.

Workshop: Load management in practice

Phil Glasgow has extensive experience in high performance sport both as an expert practitioner and as a mentor to the ‘team behind the team’. He was the Chief Physiotherapy Officer for Team GB at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games where he led the physiotherapy team of the most successful British Olympic Team in history.

Linda Linton

Clinical Specialist Physiotherapist

Workshop: WATER – An alternate environment for recruiting trunk and pelvic muscle activity in athletes with and without LBP

In this workshop I will be discussing and demonstrating the differences and similarities of exercises performed both on land and water that use the same movement patterns, particularly looking at the EMG muscle activity of the gluteals, internal and external obliques, transversus abdominus, erector spinae, and rectus abdominis muscles during all exercises. There will be discussion of what exercises work specific muscles best in the water, and also what happens to muscle activity when someone has CLBP and how this can be adapted for athletes during rehabilitation or used as part of a prehabilitation programme.

Linda graduated in 1994 with BSc (HONS) Physiotherapy, PGcert Sports Physiotherapy 1997, MMACP 2001, MSc manual Therapy 2005. She has worked at FASIC Sports Medicine Clinic, Edinburgh University since 2000 and has a special interest in research and education, running related injuries, prehabilitation, and management of spinal and pelvic dysfunctions. Previous work has included Scottish Rugby, Ladies Scottish Lacrosse Team, Mens Scottish Cricket Team, Scottish Athletics, and Lead Physiotherapist at 2014 Commonwealth Games diving venue. She started the 2 year ‘WATER’ study in 2015 at Edinburgh University – “Which AquaTic ExeRcises work best for the lumbar and pelvic muscles during exercise in water and land in healthy participants and in individuals with CLBP”.
