Research and Knowledge Exchange

Vice Chancellors Office

I am currently the Pro-Vice Chancellor for Research and Knowledge Exchange at LJMU. My primary role is to support research strategy and activities across the entire University. Building on REF2021 and the excellent results for LJMU we are launching our new Research and Knowledge Exchange Plan 2030 in January of 2023 to sit alongside the new University Strategy 2030 document to be unveiled at the same time. Allied to this we will be developing set of activities, plans and resources to support the entire research and knowledge exchange community at LJMU over the next 7 years.

Prior to my appointment as PVC in February 2020 I have previously been Associate Dean for Scholarship, Research and Knowledge Transfer in the Faculty of Science, Head of the Research Institute for Sport and Exercise Sciences, interim Director of School of Sport and Exercise Sciences as well as Professor of Exercise and Cardiovascular Physiology.

My background is as a cardiovascular physiologist interested in the health and well being of different human populations from elite athletes to clinical groups. I attained my undergraduate degree in Sport Sciences from Liverpool Polytechnic in 1987 then went on to complete an MSc in Exercise Physiology at Queens University Canada (as a Commonwealth Scholar recipient) and my PhD at Manchester Metropolitan University. I returned to LJMU as a member of staff in January 2002. My research focus in recent years has been to support the athlete cardiac pre-participation screening programme at LJMU, undertaking basic research and developing applied service research that has support two REF Impact Case Studies. In addition, I have been a strong supporter of the local and international "Global Active Cities" program. This was initially a collaborative program between TAFISA (International Sport for All), Evaleo and the IOC - with LJMU as the Academic partner - and has resulted in 10 cities being acknowledged as Global Active Cities. I continue this work now as non-executive Board member of TAFISA in combination with multiple colleagues at LJMU. I am also an active supporter of the current Research England grant at LJMU promoting the development of a professional structure/recognition for Clinical Exercise Physiologists (CEP-UK).
