Dr Bruno Mazuquin
Research Fellow
My profile
Biography
I am a physiotherapy by training and a Research Fellow at Manchester Metropolitan University. I have experience with and have published studies using different methods, mainly systematic reviews, investigating various clinical conditions including shoulder, knee and low back problems and sports performance. For my PhD, I received an international doctoral fellowship to develop research on rehabilitation after surgery to repair torn shoulder tendons. I also have experience with NIHR funded research. My area of interest is musculoskeletal rehabilitation and implementation science.
Interests and expertise
My research is related to the following research themes:
- Science of Physical Movement
- Clinical Physical Rehabilitation (Musculoskeletal)
- Optimising Health & Healthcare Resources (Evidence Synthesis and Biomechanics)
Impact
My work impacts the society in the UK and in other countries. My research has been used on 12 policy
documents in the UK (NICE guidelines on breast cancer and chronic pain), Canada, USA and Germany.
Please access https://policyprofiles.sagepub.com/profile/387/bruno-mazuquin for a detailed list of policies where my work has been used.
Teaching
Supervision
I am interested in supervising MSc and PhD students in musculoskeletal rehabilitation, evidence-based practice and implementation science. If you are interested in studying any of these subject areas, please contact me.
