Sport and Exercise Science and Medicine research is led by Dr Neil Maxwell with the remit of creating a vibrant and successful research centre that conducts innovative, applied research to tackle modern day challenges in sport, health and occupational settings.

Future research activity will build upon our existing reputation for internationally-麻豆果冻传媒 research, supported by a dynamic and experienced team of researchers and modern, well-resourced laboratories. Our research activity sits within two overarching research areas:

Exercise for health and wellbeing
Optimising human performance.

Underpinning our mission and priorities are four core principles:

high-quality research
excellent training and learning opportunities for undergraduate and postgraduate students and early-career researchers
working with stakeholders beyond our research centre and university
translation of research theory and evidence into practical settings.

Internal and external partnerships

Within the university, we have active research collaborations with the (BSMS), researchers in Health Research and the Centre for Stress and Age-Related Disease. External to the university, we collaborate nationally and internationally with academic, industrial, governmental and non-governmental partners. At the heart of our research, whether independent or collaborative, monodisciplinary or interdisciplinary is our understanding of human responses to exercise. We welcome the opportunity to collaborate with scientists, clinicians, practitioners and industry in tackling everyday challenges related to sport, exercise and health.

Work with us

Our enterprise arm, the Sport and Exercise Science Consultancy Unit (SESCU), provides an outward-facing, high-quality service to elite athletes, corporate clients, educational organisations and members of the public and works very closely with our researchers.

Our mission

Our mission is to conduct interdisciplinary research that contributes to the significant advancement in our understanding of how to maximise human performance and contribute globally to the evaluation of interventions that improve physical and mental health and wellbeing.
