    Meet the researchers within the Research Institute for Sport and Exercise Sciences and find out what work the staff are engaged in.

  4. Biomechanics Research Group

    Our research is applicable to clinical and sport and exercise biomechanics. Our focus includes: musculo-skeletal growth and development, gait analysis, virtual rehabilitation, postural stability, footwear biomechanics, and artificial neural networks.

  5. Brain and Behaviour Research Group

    In the Brain and Behaviour Research Group within RISES, we study human motor behaviour from the neural level through to perception and cognition. Our two main areas of research are sensorimotor neuroscience and expert performance and learning.

  7. Suicide crisis and self-harm attendance at A&E in autistic CYP

    Research suggests that autistic people are at a higher risk of suicide than non-autistic people. Figures show that up to 66% of autistic adults had thought about suicide during their lifetime (compared to 20% of non-autistic adults), and up to 35% had planned or attempted suicide.

  8. Cognitive and Perceptual Neuroscience Research Topic

    These LJMU researchers collectively advance understanding of human cognition, brain function, and behaviour across domains including memory, perception, motivation, language, decision making, and clinical neuroscience.

  9. Forensic and Investigative Psychology: People and Processes

    These researchers collectively contribute to forensic, social, and cognitive psychology, with work spanning offender behaviour, violence risk, sexual violence prevention, moral decision making, personality, and the psychological impact of digital and social environments.
