Summary
My research centres primarily on studies of the form and function of human skeletal muscle. Skeletal muscle is responsible for all human movement during physical activity and exercise. As a result, my research is aligned across the Allied Health spectrum as I seek to transform human health through the science of high performance. Specifically, using athlete and recreationally active people research models to study the applied physiology of strength and conditioning and particularly the neuromuscular mechanisms that explain changes in muscle strength, size, and function. Research is conducted during periods of growth and development, aging and sarcopenia, resistance training, fatigue, recovery, and dietary supplementation. We use our evidence-based information on skeletal muscle form and function to address contemporary problems, discover innovative methodologies, and translate our findings to both high performance sport and the general population.
