Tom Outram

Tom Outram is a Senior Lecturer in Sport, Outdoor and Exercise Science at the College of Science and Engineering. His research focuses on biomechanical interventions for mental health conditions, gait dynamics, cognitive-motor interactions, and sports performance optimization. He has co-authored studies on depression treatment through biomechanics, elite climber kinematics, and surgical outcomes in foot disorders. His work bridges clinical applications with sports science, particularly in understanding how physical movement impacts mental health and athletic performance.

Outram's research outputs include contributions to conferences like the Royal College of Psychiatrists International Congress and the International Society of Biomechanics. He collaborates extensively with experts in psychiatry, sports engineering, and orthopedics. His recent studies investigate the feasibility of IMU sensors for motion capture and the biomechanical effects of surgical interventions on foot function. While no formal awards are listed, his active research profile spans multiple high-impact journals and conferences.

His advising and grant activities are not explicitly detailed in the provided text, though his collaborative projects suggest involvement in interdisciplinary research teams. He is associated with labs focused on clinical biomechanics and sports performance analysis, contributing to both theoretical and applied aspects of human movement science.
