• Ep 213: What women want to know after knee injury, with Melissa Haberfield

  Did you know that only about 10% of the participants in sports medicine and sports physical therapy research are women? When people are under-represented in research, it might mean that clinicians and researchers miss key concerns of women and girls when working with them to achieve the best outcomes of treatment. Melissa Haberfield - physiotherapist and PhD candidate at the La Trobe Sports and Exercise Medicine Research Centre in Melbourne, Australia - shares the results of her work with women who have experienced serious knee injury, about what they wanted to know about managing knee health. ------------------------------ RESOURCES Systematic review of self-reported activity and knee-related outcomes after ACL injury (sex and gender differences): https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36889918/ Sex/gender equity in sport and exercise medicine/physical therapy publishing: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36631242/ What do women (with serious knee injury) want to know about knee health (article): https://www.jospt.org/doi/10.2519/jospt.2025.12869
