In this 238th episode of Dave Tate's Table Talk, Dr. Stuart M. McGill joins us. Welcome, Stu!
Dr. Stuart M. McGill is a "distinguished professor emeritus" at the University of Waterloo, where he was a professor for 30 years. His laboratory and experimental research clinic investigated issues related to the causal mechanisms of back pain, how to rehabilitate back-pained people, and enhance both injury resilience and performance. His advice is often sought by governments, corporations, legal experts, medical groups, and elite athletes and teams worldwide.
His work produced over 245 peer-reviewed scientific journal papers, several textbooks, and many international awards, including the "Order of Canada" in 2020 for leadership in the back pain area. He mentored over 37 graduate students during this scientific journey.
During this time, he taught thousands of clinicians and practitioners in professional development and continuing education courses worldwide.
He continues as the Chief Scientific Officer for Backfitpro Inc. Difficult back cases and elite performers are regularly referred to him for consultation. Any product associated with this website has been tested in Dr. McGill's laboratory.
