Gary Shum

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Gary Shum is a lecturer in Physiotherapy, School of Health Professions of the University of Plymouth, United Kingdom

His research interests focus on :

- Biomechanics of the Spine.

- Effect of low back pain on the three-dimensional kinematics and kinetics of the spine and hip.

- Effect of different pathologies on the biomechanics of the musculoskeletal system.


Gary Shum has published a range of articles and conference proceedings in the biomechanics of the musculoskeletal system.
