Funded Activity Summary

My research has established that exercise programs can prevent falls and enhance mobility in older people and those affected by a range of conditions. There remain important unanswered questions about the design and delivery of optimally effective and cost-effective physical activity programs. My proposed research program will address these with studies targeting the design and evaluation of novel interventions, implementation of proven interventions and population health approaches.
