My principal research interests lie in the interaction between exercise and the central nervous system. Through collaborative research with the Faculty of Brain Sciences and UCL Engineering, we are unpacking the physiological and behavioural mechanisms through which physical activity impacts brain activity and cognitive function. Together we have constituted the Exercise Neuroscience Research Group (ENRG).
I am programme director of the iBSc and BSc courses in Sport and Exercise Medical Sciences at the Institute of Sport, Exercise and Health. In 2021 I substantially redeveloped the BSc programme to deliver a new, unique and innovative programme that will produce experienced graduates with practical experience and insight in clinical applications of exercise and physical activity, in both clinical and athletic contexts.
