In the motion science laboratory, there are advanced equipment for studying movement patterns, forces and muscle function.

Here we have gathered publications related to the Sport Without Injury ProgrammE (SWIPE).

Our research includes study of injury occurrence and risk factors in sports. We also evaluate the efficacy of injury preventive measures, and their effectiveness, including applicability in different sports and sporting populations.

In this project, we investigate the prevalence of sports-related pain in adolescents and young adults, how pain affects the athlete, and what support coaches and athletes need to manage pain in sports.

In this project we conduct a prospective injury and illness surveillance study in Swedish top-level athletes in collaboration with the Swedish Olympic Committee.

We study effects of the Knee Control programmes in football and facilitators and barriers for programme use.

SWIPE has ongoing national/international collaborations on injury prevention and implementation in sports.

In several projects we investigate the injury prevention effects and implementation of Knee Control and Knee Control+ in floorball.
