About this Event
By George Allison
Common paediatric fractures are due to either the mechanics of growing bone or some fracture types not being well understood. George Allison's work aims to be the largest study on children 0 - 18 years and bridge the knowledge gap that currently exists, with a longer-term goal of improving how we understand and assess fracture risk in children.
George Allison is a final year PhD researcher at the University of Sheffield, working with the Insigneo Institute for Healthcare Technology. His research focus is primarily on biomechanics, beginning with work on predicting trabecular regeneration in postmenopausal women through impact exercise, and transitioning to investigating paediatric biomechanics at the start of his PhD. He is currently focused on computational modelling, engineering analysis, and software development.
Entry is free, all ages welcome.
Complementary tea and coffee will be available during the break.
