My current research focus includes sport injury prevention and treatment in youth, and the development of new methods to study outcomes that may be recurrent events (like injuries). Improving the quality of this research will allow clinicians to better treat their patients, and allow patients to remain as active and healthy as they would like to be.
Dr. Ian Shrier has two main areas of research: sport medicine and biostatistics/general epidemiology. In sport medicine research, he was the first author to suggest that stretching prior to exercise does not prevent injury (subsequently supported by a moderate body of research). More recently, he studied injury patterns and risk in Cirque du Soleil artists, return to activity decision making by sport medicine health professionals, and how to increase physical activity without getting injured. He is currently funded to explore the causal relationship between workload and risk of injury.
With respect to biostatistics and general epidemiology, Dr. Shrier has recently published articles in the area of causal inference (understanding confounding, causal inference) and how clinicians and scientists synthesize and interpret information when presented with systematic reviews / meta-analyses. One of his CIHR grants is to improve methods for the analysis of recurrent event data (e.g. count data that is often obtained in injury epidemiology studies).
