Research
Edward's research is centred on developing and refining exercise-based interventions aimed at enhancing the overall health and well-being of individuals with non-communicable diseases, particularly cancer. His work seeks to identify how excerise intervention, physical activity and behavioural change interventions can be used as a therapeutic tool to improve physical functional outcomes such as aerobic capcity, muscular strength and endurance, neuromuscular proprioception and flexibility, and quality of life.
