Ellen Marie Bardal
About
Study programme leader for the Bachelor programme in Human Movement Science at Department of Neuromedicine and Movement Science. I am teaching in several courses at the bachelor education in Human Movement Science.
My research focus on muskuloskeletal pain and objective measurements of physical activity. I am participating in several large scale studies, incuding selfBACK, Back-UP and HUNT4.
.
Fields of interest
Measurement of physical activity, musculoskeletal disorders, public health, neuromuscular control and exercise physiology
Education
PhD in Health Science, NTNU
Title: Characteristics of physical- and motor- performance in fibromyalgia
Master in Human Movement Science, NTNU
Title: An environment-controlled comparison of ankle kinematics between treadmill and overground walking.
