Faculty of Biological Sciences
JOB REF: FBSMS0022
1.1. This is a major strategic investment by the University to achieve an ambitious improvement in academic performance and enhanced student experience.
It is anticipated that the post holder will be a research leader, able to work across different aspects of the Sport and Exercise Sciences research at the University and play a significant role in maximising the opportunities offered by multi-disciplinary research. Our research uses contemporary systems-integrative perspective to investigate exercise responses, control mechanisms and exercise adherence. Application and translation spans elite athletes, the elderly and children, as well as patients with chronic heart, cancer and lung disease, spinal cord injuries, and motor impairments. The group incorporates both multi- and inter-disciplinary research aimed at improving the understanding of the relationship between physical activity patterns, health and the predisposition to chronic diseases.
