We investigate risk and health factors for sustainable sport from an interdisciplinary perspective, and evaluate measures for how it can be promoted.
We work to understand how exercise, nutrition and environmental factors can prevent and improve common injury and disease conditions. It is our ambition to conduct research and collaboration in close collaboration with sports and the business community, so that new knowledge is quickly shared - for the benefit of everyone.
We want to be involved in creating innovations that support our elite athletes and promote health for the exerciser. The research also aims to understand and develop leadership in sports where both performance and sustainability are in focus.
