Biography

Professor Alan Donnelly is Associate Professor of Exercise Physiology.  He is Director of  UL's Health Research Institute (HRI), and a member of the HRI's "Physical Activity for Health" research cluster.   A graduate of Strathclyde and Aberdeen Universities, he has worked in Ireland, the UK, USA and Australia.  His research encompasses the objective measurement of sedentary behaviour, physical activity and health.  His current research projects focus on accurate measurement of physical behaviours, including sedentary behaviour, physical activity and standing.  His current projects include both cross sectional and activity intervention studies.  He works on populations including adolescents and older adults, where his team uses worn devices to explore the relationship between physical behaviours and health outcomes.  Current projects include the large scale cross-European project "WEALTH" funded in Ireland by the HRB under the Joint Programme Initiative "Healthy Diet Healthy Life" where he is project coordinator, the "DE-PASS" COST ACTION where he is Task Leader on a cross European surveillance project and the Horizon 2020 project "GoGreenRoutes" where he is Work Package Leader.
