Innovation and research
What's changing in podiatry and healthcare. New technologies, emerging evidence and developments that could influence future practice.
As attention turns to the 2026 World Cup in Canada, Mexico and the United States, we revisit the biomechanics of football boots with UEFA medical specialist Dr Katrine Okholm Kryger – exploring performance, injury risk and why women’s boots still lag behind.
Members of the Dermatology in Podiatry Special Advisory Group have developed a new app designed to help podiatrists recognise suspicious lesions and structure referrals. We spoke to the team behind the project about the clinical problem they’ve been trying to solve and how the tool was developed.
