Research in action
Our research hubs and facilities specialise in areas such as health assessment, epidemiology, complementary and alternative medicine, exercise, sports science, and public health. Our innovative research is informing policy and practice to help improve people鈥檚 lives.
For instance, a desire to challenge assumptions around disability and to ground social advocacy in research led Dr Johnny Bourke to his doctoral research. It focused on the community inclusion of wheelchair users in the long-term following a natural disaster. His research provides a massive opportunity to realise some policies around disability rights and human rights.
