Clinical Biomechanics is an international multidisciplinary journal of musculoskeletal biomechanics. The science of biomechanics helps explain the causes of musculoskeletal disorders and provides assistance to the clinician in the evaluation of treatment methods. Clinical Biomechanics aims to strengthen the link between clinic and laboratory by publishing biomechanics research which helps to explain the causes of musculoskeletal disorders and which provides knowledge contributing to improved clinical management. A peer review system is employed and every attempt is made to process and publish papers promptly. Clinical Biomechanics explores all facets of musculoskeletal biomechanics with an emphasis on clinical management. The role of basic, as well as medical, science is recognized in a clinical context. The readership of the journal closely reflects its contents, being a balance of scientists, engineers and clinicians. The contents are in the form of research papers, brief reports, review papers and correspondence, whilst special interest issues and supplements are published from time to time. Disciplines covered include orthopaedic and sports biomechanics, bioengineering, biophysics, ergonomics, kinetics, clinical science, physical therapeutics and rehabilitation. The journal is affiliated to the American Society of Biomechanics, and the International Society of Biomechanics. The journal is featured in 'Biomechanics World Wide.'
