Sport Performance and Exercise Research & Innovation Center-Stockholm, SPERIC-S
We study sports performance and training, from molecules to humans in motion. During the past year, an intense interdisciplinary research, innovation, and educational environment has been built around exercise, health, and performance development, SPERIC-S.
Introduction
The strength of our research environment is that we combine targeted excellence with current broad applied knowledge - without compromising on quality. Our ultimate competence areas are biomechanics, sports physiology, sports psychology, leadership, and nutrition. The ambition is to maintain an environment with a broad top comprising several project managers and projects where everyone has a place and development.
Together with Riksidrottsförbundet and Mittuniversitet, we have an agreement on a joint venture, a sports research school, and a sports research network where sports. It is focused on the form of the Swedish Sports Confederation, together with specialist sports federations, businesses, and academia working together for investment in elite sports-oriented, activity-based research.
Purpose
Our ambition is to conduct research and collaboration closely with sports and business. The reason is that new knowledge is quickly shared to all benefit.
We examine risk and health factors for sustainable sports from an interdisciplinary perspective and evaluate measures for promoting sustainable sports.
We want to understand the details of how the body is affected by exercise to translate that knowledge into performance optimization and health promotion.
We want to be involved in creating innovations that support our elite athletes and make everyday life easier for the exerciser. The research also aims to understand and develop leadership in sports where performance and sustainability are focused.
We want to understand the entire chain, from molecule to human, and have the skills, environment, and passion.
