The Sports Medicine Unit, Equine Department is specialized in biomechanical aspects related to health and performance of horses. Different measurement technologies allow to measure objective data as complementary input to classic diagnose techniques. The clinical services include many options amongst lameness evaluation, gait analysis, endoscopy under exercise, chiropractics, saddle pressure measurements and many more. Research-wise the group is focusing on different objective measurement techniques to better understand causal effects compromising the health of the horse.
-------
Many interesting projects for Master thesis are available, depending on the personal affiliation of the candidate. Although an Engineering or Movement Science background is desired for this collaboration. The detailed research question will be discussed during first meetings.
-------
• Should have a strong interest in biomechanics/movement sciences and data analysis
• Interest in animal science
• Hold at least a bachelor’s degree in engineering/Movement Sciences or related (veterinary science with strong technical interest)
• Have your personal host University/Professorship supporting you, supervision is done completely by our group (details to be discussed)
• Start from 1. March (flexible)
• Speak at least one of the two languages German or English fluently
