A panel of current students and graduates will discuss the value of engaging in research, Tuesday, March 22, to open the 10th annual Kinesiology Research Day.

The day’s program will feature:

• current and former kinesiology students Natalie Heeney, Nathalie Kirby, Paul Leuty, Alex Pennetti, Alison Schinkel-Ivy and Jennifer Neilson, discussing “What kinesiology research can do for you;”
• speed poster presentations by graduate students Laura Chittle, Ashley Duguay, Adam Goodwin, Taylor Imeson, Elizabeth Vandenborn and Alaina Zvric;
• a keynote address by alumnus Sefu Bernard (BHK 2000), assistant coach for player development with the Washington Mystics of the WNBA; and
• a poster display of student research, followed by an awards presentation.

Dean of human kinetics Michael Khan calls Kinesiology Research Day “a highlight of our academic year” that highlights the breadth of research conducted in the faculty.

“Research underpins our excellence in teaching and community service,” he says. “It’s nice to have a chance to showcase the diversity of our research disciplines—from sport psychology to ergonomics, from cardiovascular physiology to motor behaviour.”

Events are divided between the Human Kinetics Building’s room 140 and the adjacent atrium. Find a schedule on the UWindsor calendar of events.
