Biography
Lynne is a Reader in Children's Physical Activity and Physical Activity Exchange Lead based within the Research Institute for Sport and Exercise Sciences. After working in research in the NHS Lynne returned to Liverpool John Moores University to complete her PhD at the School of Sport and Exercise Sciences. Concurrently she worked as a researcher for a number of years in the Faculty of Education, Community and Leisure and the School of Sport and Exercise Sciences before being appointed as a Lecturer/Senior Lecturer within the School. Lynne is involved in a number of research programmes within the Physical Activity Exchange including population level fitness and physical activity surveillance studies, physical activity measurement methods studies, projects investigating the links between fitness, physical activity and disease risk, physical activity interventions and work investigating and promoting physical activity in special populations.
