Zoe Wilson is Owner and Lead Podiatrist at ZW Clinics, specialising in Musculoskeletal Podiatry and Biomechanics. In addition to her clinical work, Zoe is a highly acclaimed speaker and educator, regularly leading her own courses and sharing her knowledge and passion with peers across the profession.
In this lecture, Zoe will focus on sports-related injuries, outlining the gait assessment techniques she uses and how they inform her treatment decisions. She will also share insights into her multidisciplary clinics, highlighting how their collaborative approach supports effective management of challenging cases.
David Beard is Professor of Musculoskeletal & Surgical Sciences at the Nuffield Department of Orthopaedics, Rheumatology and Musculoskeletal Sciences in the University of Oxford, and Professor of Surgical and Complex Trials at the University of Sydney. His current research interests include surgical clinical trials methodology, outcome measurement in MSK health and work related to long duration space flight.
This lecture will present his recent research on anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury management. His extensive work, including the ACL SNNAP trial, has provided valuable insights into the comparative effectiveness of surgical reconstruction versus non-surgical rehabilitation for non-acute ACL injuries. This session will delve into how these findings can inform clinical decision-making and optimise patient outcomes in ACL injury treatment
We’re closing out a full day of biomechanics with a lighter, engaging Q&A with Vassos Alexander - author, endurance athlete, and one of the best-known sports presenters in the UK. Vassos co-hosts The Chris Evans Breakfast Show on Virgin Radio and has covered every sporting event imaginable, from Olympic Games to World Cups. The author of three bestselling books on running, you can expect an entertaining and honest look at the world of endurance sport based on a wealth of personal experience, stories and reflections.
What is the main focus of the masterclass?
This year’s masterclass theme is Gait Analysis in Clinical Practice. Our speakers will delve into a wide range of topics related to gait, exploring its application across various conditions, age groups, surgical interventions, and sports settings. Through insightful presentations and interactive workshops, they will enhance your clinical decision-making skills and demonstrate practical ways to integrate gait analysis into your practice—ultimately helping you deliver more effective, individualized treatments.
Who is this masterclass for?
This target audience for the content we have created is ideally for podiatrists, physiotherapists, sports scientists, researchers , and anyone within an MSK field. If you are unsure if this conference is appropriate for you, please email andrea@run3d.co.uk
I don't own my clinic, is this masterclass still good for me?
Yes! Many of our previous attending delegates work within a practice, and we usually have a few students as well.
I don't use gait analysis in my clinic, is this masterclass appropriate for me?
Yes! You do not need to currently have gait analysis in your practice to attend. Whilst this masterclass will be focusing a lot on gait, we will be exploring different associated pathologies, rehabilitation and surgery. If you're interested in gait analysis, that is a good place to start!
Where do I park my car in Oxford?
As with many venues in Oxford, we do not have any dedicated parking for our event. We recommend other forms of public transportation such as train and bus if you can. Otherwise, we have made some parking suggestions on our website here.
Where is a good place to stay in Oxford for the masterclass?
We have made some recommendations here.
What should I wear to the mastercass?
This is most commonly asked question, so if you're looking at this you're not alone. We do not have a formal dress code for the masterclass and as it's a long day, we do want you to be comfortable. However, as it is a professional masterclass within the University of Oxford, we encourage smart casual attire.
Do I need to bring food, or will food be available on the day?
Throughout the day, there will be regular tea and coffee breaks to keep you refreshed. There will also be an hour break at lunch time to enjoy a hot lunch in the newly refurbished trinity dining hall ( this is included in your ticket).
This year, after the masterclass we will be convening in the Garden Room next door for a post masterclass drinks reception, sponsored by ALTRA, where we will enjoy beverages and canapes while you network with your fellow delegates and speakers.
Please note there is no food or beverages allowed in the auditorium where our morning lectures take place. Also, if you have any food allergies, please get in touch with andrea@run3d.co.uk
