Research
Research Interests
My research focuses on the intersection between sport and neurological health, examining the impact of physical activity and exercise on the brain and health-related adaptive processes.
My current research investigates the underlying mechanisms and long-term consequences of repetitive head impacts and concussions in sports on brain health. I am focusing particularly on professional football in order to better understand the effects of repeated head impacts and assess their significance for long-term neurological health.
Building on my previous research, I am also interested in the targeted use of physical activity and exercise to promote health and quality of life, particularly for people with neurological conditions such as multiple sclerosis.
