Dr Patrick Esser

PhD

Reader in Sport and Rehabilitation Technology

School of Sport, Nutrition and Allied Health Professions

Role

Dr Patrick Esser, Reader, is the Director of the Centre for Movement, Occupation and Rehabilitation Sciences (MORES) at Oxford Brookes University, where he leads the Movement Science theme.

Patrick has been trained in Mechanical Engineering and Medical Technology in the Netherlands. He then went on to complete his PhD in Clinical Biomechanics, during which he created easy and objective assessment tools for measuring the quality and quantity of movement in neurological conditions.

His academic activities include research and knowledge exchange, where he takes the lead in multidisciplinary teams developing and evaluating bespoke hard- and software solutions for real-world medical applications. In addition, Patrick is involved in the development and evaluation of novel technological-based products from commercial entities.

Patrick also sits on various steering group committees (e.g. OxInAHR & Alzheimer's Research UK Thames Valley Network Centre) and actively engages with outfacing knowledge exchange activities (e.g. Faculty Innovation Team) such as start-up companies under InnovationUK funding schemes.
