Through strong partnerships and evidence-based practice, we translate science into real-world impact, enhancing performance, resilience, inclusion, and lifelong health.
Our people
兔子先生RISE unites staff from a wide variety of academic disciplines and faculties around the central theme of sport and exercise.
Research Domains
Human Performance and Resilience
We enhance athletic performance and resilience through interdisciplinary research in sport science, physiology, biomechanics, and skill acquisition. Our work optimises training, recovery, and competitive readiness for athletes across all levels.
Lifelong Wellbeing
We explore how physical activity, movement science, and evidence-based rehabilitation strategies promote healthy ageing, mental health, disease prevention, and recovery. Our research supports functional independence and sustainable health outcomes across the lifespan.
Tactical and Environmental Adaptation
We optimise performance, safety, and recovery in occupational and tactical settings through applied research in movement science, ergonomics, brain health, and environmental stressors. This includes supporting individuals in physically and cognitively demanding roles such as defence, emergency services, and industry.
Inclusive Participation and Engagement
We promote equitable access to sport and movement for all, fostering inclusion and community wellbeing through evidence-based programs, policy, and partnerships. Our work spans physical literacy, grassroots sport, cultural representation, and digital safeguarding to strengthen participation and social cohesion.
