Description
Irene Davis is a renowned biomechanics clinician and scientist. Barefoot running has been one of her areas of focus and she co-authored the Nature paper that received cover attention and created mainstream attention to that topic.
She and first author Dr Patrick McKeon, conceived of the idea of a foot ‘core’; if certain foot muscles act as a core it has immediate implications for management in clinical practice.
Listen to Professor Davis and see the linked paper (below). Let us know if you agree, disagree. Tweet or write a blog post (email to karim.khan@ubc.ca).
One of few researchers who addresses this issue, Prof Davis is a regular keynote speaker at major international conferences. In this BJSM podcast she shares her clinical approach to assessing patients where the ‘foot core’ may be relevant.
