      I work at Leeds Beckett University. A typical day involves lecturing BSc or MSc students studying Sport & Exercise Therapy, Physiotherapy or Sport and Exercise Medicine. I normally will have some MSc or PhD student meetings to attend to as well as trying to find time for my own writing. I try to keep involved in some applied practice over the course of the year so as not to lose my skills. I am often involved in exercise science/physical therapy related roles for the Athletics Association of Ireland. Sometimes this involves coach education or athlete support on training camps or at major championships.

      I work in a research centre at the University of Manchester. In our hulding we have labs on the ground floor (see my profile for some pics) and offices upstairs, and we house probably around 10-15 researchers at any one time.

      I am doing a PhD at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, which is a university in central London. The building was built in 1929 so is quite old in parts, but the modern sections are very nice. My research group have an office next to our lab. There are about 6 of us in that office, then our supervisor/boss has an office next to it.I like the location of LSHTM a lot- it’s a really lovely part of London.
